Is it possible to take a screenshot of a window larger than screen size?

[jasonkhanlar]

I resized a spreadsheet window to larger than the width and height of my screen and tried to capture a screenshot with scrot -d 2 -u however only the portion that appears on my screen is in the image. How can I capture the full window, includnig the parts that are off the screen?

Hi,
At the moment you can capture an off-screen window with the --stack option (capture all visible ones) + the --class option (discriminate by class name). Note that --stack needs an active Composite Window Manager.
Example: scrot --stack --class UXTerm

What you want to do would be a nice improvement.

I think the -s option may work.

I have 2 monitors and I was too lazy to try and figure out a way to resize a window so it's bigger than both of them together, but I resized it manually so it's bigger than one of the screens horizontally and the -s option worked.
