Pyscreenshot with twin monitors - Closed
iainrs opened this issue · comments
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:

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)
