sub-menus AS WELL AS the program in the background.

Simplest way: PrintScreen button, then open a graphical program and
copy the screen in there as a new image. Works like a charm!

Simplest way but-one :): Use something like PrintKey2000 (version 5.10
was the last freeware version, which is still available from:

If I understand you correctly, Gadwin PrintScreen will do that
(http://www.gadwin.com/)

If you assign the print screen function to your PrtScrn key, it is easy...

While any menus or submenus are open, hit the PrtScrn key. Gadwin will
freeze the screen with the menus open. You can then select the region you
want - the open menus and submenu along with other areas of the open program
and any other windows that are visible. Hit "Enter," and it goes right to
your clipboard, printer or anywhere else you direct as part of the Gadwin
"Properties" menu. By the way, Gadwin won't capture whatever is behind any
open menus, if that's what you mean.

Hope this helps.

I use Irfanview (in preference to Gadwin). Start Irfanview > Options >
Capture/Screenshot > Set Configuration.
Then Ctrl-F11 will capture the screen to the folder you have specified.
