How to capture the screen of a window that contains transparency?
Trying to find a way to capture a window that contains transparency that also works when the window is covered by another.
I tried the function [PrintWindow] but it doesn't store the transparency information in the hdc.
If possible using gdi+.

2kaud, tell me how linking to a topic that got no useful answer could help in something?
I posted on different websites because I was not finding any helpful answers.

Then I did GdipCreateFromHDC to retrieve the graphics from the dc, and GdipDrawImageRectRect to paint the bitmap, but it result in a bitmap without any transparency.

@c7aesa7r - It is good etiquette to indicate where else it has been posted. This enables any potential reply-er to find out what has already been suggested before spending time replying or looking into the issue. People who reply do it in their own time without payment - just to try to help others.

There are a few ways to capture the screen of a window that contains transparency. One way is to use the Snipping Tool. Another way is to use the Print Screen function.

Neither Snipping Tool nor Print Screen resolve the problem if the window is covered by another. Please, read carefully the original post!
