What's your favorite screenshot tool on Linux?
|
|||
|
|
======
|
|||
|
|
There are many open source screenshot tools to choose from, but which one works for you?

As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words, and while that's not always the case with terminal commands and code, it still holds true for the graphical desktop. Screenshots capture precisely what's on your screen. I love taking them to have a record of who attends meetings, so I don't have to write it down at the moment. Or to capture a bug when doing UI testing. We all take them for different reasons, though, and there are more ways to take a screenshot than you might at first think.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|

I started thinking about screenshots after Jim Hall wrote an as the ways he often takes screenshots. And yet that's just the beginning, as I quickly found out when I asked Opensource.com authors how they each take screenshots.

### Making a spectacle
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
![Spectacle][2]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I use Spectacle. It works perfectly for my simple needs.
|
|||
|

I use KDE. It ships with Spectacle, which seems to be responsible for taking a screenshot when I push the **PrtScr** (Print Screen) key.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
A nice feature is that the default action is to take a screenshot immediately when you press **PrtScr**, but then it brings up the Spectacle interface, so you can take more sophisticated screenshots (a rectangular area, the window under your cursor, and so on.)

### Framing the shot
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
For a long time I had wanted to capture only a small amount of the screen in a screenshot, not the whole thing, but struggled to know how.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Since then I've installed KolourPaint. I open the full screenshot inside the program, and cut out the part I want to keep. Hope this could help others suffering the same screenshot dilemma!

I use **Shift**+**PrtSc** to capture a small amount of the screen in a screenshot.

### Emacs
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
A while back I created an [Elisp function][7] to take a screenshot from Emacs.

### Flameshot

|

![Flameshot][9]
|

|
|
|
|||
|
|
[Flameshot][10], the one and only! Nothing is missing in this wonderful tool: doodling, arrows, adding text, a pixelate tool for blurring out sensitive information, an autoincrementing counter bubble, save, copy, the ability to open the screenshot in a selected application, and the list goes on and on. Once I installed it, I've never looked for anything else!
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
A friendly hint: when installing from Flatpak, you might want to use [Flatseal][11] to grant access to your home folder, otherwise the Save dialog will feel somewhat empty.

### ImageMagick
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
#!/bin/bash
|
|||
|
|
current=$(date +%H-%M-%S-%d-%m-%Y).png
|
|||
|
|
if [[ -z "${1}" ]]; then
|
|||
|
|
import -window root "${HOME}/${current}" # All screen
|
|||
|
|
else
|
|||
|
|
import "${HOME}/${current}" # Custom screenshot
|
|||
|
|
fi
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
notify-send "Screenshot ${current} taken successfully!"
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**—Suporte Terminal Root**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### GNOME
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
![GNOME Screenshot][13]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
As a mostly GNOME Desktop user, I was happy taking screenshots with the regular **PrtSc**, **Ctrl**+**PrtSc**, or **Shift**+**PrtSc** keys. My favorite is **Shift** because it allows me to select an area of the screen.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Recently, GNOME recently introduced an improved screenshot tool when you simply hit **PrtSc**. I haven't even used it that much yet, so I'm looking forward to trying it out thoroughly on some future articles.

As a satisfied GNOME user, I've been using the built-in screenshot tool. With the older version, I would screenshot a window with **Shift**+**PrtSc**. Now I just use **PrtSc** and select the region with the tool. I like the new one better, but if I had to go back to the old, that'd be OK too.

### XFCE Screenshooter
|
|||
|
|
|

|
|
![XFCE Screenshooter][16]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I've been using XFCE lately, and **xfce4-screenshooter** has been doing an excellent job. Like the rest of XFCE, it's minimal but highly functional, with options to capture the entire screen, the active window, or just a region. You can even activate or deactivate whether the mouse cursor is included in the shot.
|
|||

### Grim and Slurp
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I have a fun little alias that I use for screenshots:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
alias sshot='; grim -g "$(slurp)" screenshot-$(date +%s).png 2> /dev/null'
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
It lets me draw a rectangle on my screen, and it captures just that area. The command uses **grim** and **slurp**, both available in the Fedora repos.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
But this only works on Wayland. On X11, you can replace them with **maim** and **scrot**.
