Take screenshot of suggested results?

[tdcrooks]

Hi,

Is anyone else able to take a screenshot of the search suggestion box that comes up in Google for example?

When you type "linu" before typing the last "x" for the word "linux", it shows "linux" as a suggestion box that drops down. That box. For some reason, when I hit Print Screen, the box goes away and the screen is printed without it...

How can I get that box to show in my screen print?

go to Applications > Accessories > Take Screenshot.
edit Grab after a delay of XX seconds to 3 to 5 five seconds. click Take Screenshot.
go to google, type your suggestion, then wait for the screenshot to be taken.
works for me...

Thanks! That worked!

Here's what I wanted to capture for people to see

"Linux Windows"

well that is typically M$. first 3 hits contain their products...

Have seen posts on Linux Format about Bing replacing Windows Live on ie6 through 8 and making it's self the default search engine and some chatter that M$ say it's a bug also some speculation that it's a hijack of some kind.So take your pick on which conspiracy theory applies

ps. It's also on my Sympatico mail page and Win 7 install.

Another way to do it is to create an alternative screenshot command using ImageMagick import command:

yum install ImageMagick

Then open Keyboard Shortcuts in System->Preferences menu, and click Add to create a custom command, I called it 'sshot' and used this command:

import -silent -window root -resize 60% /home/user/Desktop/sshot.jpg

Then click Apply and click the box where it says 'Disabled' to assign a key (Just press any key or key combination, I used F2). Move the mouse cursor off the input box before hitting F2 to take the screenshot

Notice, if you type "fed", google brings up fedora (almost as popular as fedex!) but Bing doesn't
