[Gambas-user] Control.Grab (gb.qt4) - The old way?

[Charlie Ogier]

Hi Bruce,

You can get a control image with: -

PictureBox1.Picture = Desktop.Screenshot(Button1.ScreenX, 
Button1.ScreenY, Button1.Width, Button1.Height)

You can change 'Button1' to any control. How you get an image of a 
control you can't see is beyond me.
