_takeScreenShot() works great, except that it only works on single screen setup...

I use dual monitors and all the tests automatically execute on the secondary screen (as I want it to), but _takeScreenShot() hits the primary screen. Is there a way to handle this?

    I'm using Sahi Open Source, so I don 't believe _takeScreenShot() is available to me. I use a Java function instead. This takes a screenshot of BOTH monitors.

    //


    function takeErrorSnapShotDualRight(){

    var $fileName = "R_Error_";
    var robot = new java.awt.Robot();
    var toolkit = new java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
    var screenSize = toolkit.getScreenSize();
    var screenRect = new java.awt.Rectangle(1919, 0, screenSize.width / 2, screenSize.height);
    var image = robot.createScreenCapture(screenRect);
    d = new Date();
    var tm = d.toString('HH:mm:ss');
    printAnyThroughJava("The Time is "+tm);
    ctr++;
    var file = new java.io.File($screenShotPath +$funcName +$fileName +"Screenshot_" + tm + "_" + ctr + ".png");
    javax.imageio.ImageIO.write(image, "png", file);
    }

    //

    function takeErrorSnapShotDualLeft(){

    var $fileName = "L_Error_";
    var robot = new java.awt.Robot();
    var toolkit = new java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
    var screenSize = toolkit.getScreenSize();
    var screenRect = new java.awt.Rectangle(0, 0, screenSize.width / 2, screenSize.height);
    var image = robot.createScreenCapture(screenRect);
    d = new Date();
    var tm = d.toString('HH:mm:ss');
    ctr++;
    var file = new java.io.File($screenShotPath +$funcName +$fileName +"Screenshot_" + tm + "_" + ctr + ".png");
    javax.imageio.ImageIO.write(image, "png", file);

    }

    Very Nice.
    Although, the final environment is headless in my case. the screenshots is only for debugging.

    I make use of a small function:

    function $ScreenGrab(){
    _set($dt, document.title); // this will take window title
    _focusWindow($dt); // this will set the focus on window
    _takeScreenShot(); // this will take the snapshot
    };

    Think Ill give it a go. Thanx

    I just encountered the exact same issue. It's just an annoyance, but a solution would be very welcome.
