Pyscreenshot with twin monitors - Closed

[iainrs]

I am using a twin monitor system where I use the right hand screen for my main working. Using pyscreenshot to save a tkinter canvas `

from PIL import Image,ImageTk import pyscreenshot as ImageGrab .. box=(x,y,x1,y1) im = ImageGrab.grab(bbox=box)` im.save('screenshot.png')

If the window to be captured is on the left hand screen the above code works fine. (box value (87, 185, 1558, 993)

If it is on the right hand screen (box value (1947, 151, 1558, 993) it fails with

`Process Process-1: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PIL/ImageFile.py", line 477, in _save fh = fp.fileno() AttributeError: '_idat' object has no attribute 'fileno'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.6/multiprocessing/process.py", line 258, in _bootstrap self.run() File "/usr/lib/python3.6/multiprocessing/process.py", line 93, in run self._target(*self._args, **self._kwargs) File "/home/xxxx/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pyscreenshot/procutil.py", line 19, in _wrapper r = codec0 File "/home/xxxx/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pyscreenshot/imcodec.py", line 22, in _coder im.save(b, format='png') File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PIL/Image.py", line 1935, in save save_handler(self, fp, filename) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PIL/PngImagePlugin.py", line 822, in _save [("zip", (0, 0)+im.size, 0, rawmode)]) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PIL/ImageFile.py", line 485, in _save e.setimage(im.im, b) SystemError: tile cannot extend outside image`

This is not a major problem as I can always move the window before grabbing

Apologises for duplicate issue (closed by mistake)

Your box is invalid: (1947, 151, 1558, 993) (x1,y1,x2,y2)

x2<x1
