8 months ago Hi @HenriqueArgentieri, @harupy , I added support for my two monitors+laptop configuration in Windows 10 by making several relatively small changes as follow.
1) Geometry of several monitors in Tkinter
In SnippingTool.py we have to tell tkinter that geometry 0, 0, tk.Tk().winfo_screenwidth(), tk.Tk().winfo_screenheight() is not good enough. Because other than main monitor go to above and beyond this box.
Let's introduce new function that enhance multiple screen case.
def get_geometry(self, tkinter: tk.Tk):
screens = QtGui.QGuiApplication.screens()
if len(screens) == 1:
return 0, 0, tkinter.winfo_screenwidth(), tkinter.winfo_screenheight()
x_min = y_min = +100_000
x_max = y_max = -100_000
for s in screens:
g = s.geometry()
x_min = min(x_min, g.x())
y_min = min(y_min, g.y())
x_max = max(x_max, g.x() + g.width())
y_max = max(y_max, g.y() + g.height())
return x_min, y_min, x_max - x_min, y_max - y_minAnd feed this box into root tkinter
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(SnippingWidget, self).__init__()
self.parent = parent
self.setWindowFlags(Qt.WindowStaysOnTopHint)
root = tk.Tk()
g = self.get_geometry(root)
self.setGeometry(*g)2) Grabbing an image - PIL is NOK, switch to MSS
I checked stackoverflow. It seems that PIL doesn't support several monitors with grabbing.
So I imported and installed MSS package.
And switched from img = ImageGrab.grab(bbox=(x1, y1, x2, y2)) in mouseReleaseEvent(self, event) to:
with mss.mss() as sct:
sct_img = sct.grab(bbox)
img = PIL.Image.frombytes("RGB", sct_img.size, sct_img.bgra, "raw", "BGRX")
# add to the snips list the object that opens a window of the image
SnippingMenu.Menu(img, SnippingWidget.num_snip, (x1, y1, x2, y2))

Hi Harupy, your snipping-tool is really good, I am using a lot to summarize videos creating presentations. I am using 2 monitors, however I just can capture the main monitor. How to select the second monitor??? Thanks
