Screen Capture on Dual Monitor
Brought to you by:

I am trying to use your Screen Capture utility and it is having trouble with my dual monitor setup. I can get the Foreground Window and Current Screen on both screens so that seems to work fine, but the Select Area Utility only works on the monitor you start the program from. Well, that not entirely true. If you start the program from the seconday monitor, the Select Area cross hairs show up on the secondary monitor, but it captures the image from the Primary Monitor. If the program could capture from both screens, and do it correctly that would be great. Thanks!
I can't reproduce the problem. Regardless of where I start the app, I can select a rectangle from either monitor, or even spanning monitors.
I just downloaded btnet_screen_capture.exe (ver 2.2.1) and can verify this bug. If I start the exe on my primary monitor, I can capture data on that monitor no problem. When I start it on my secondary monitor, it creates a "grey area" the size of my smaller primary monitor to select from. Selecting in this area actually selects the image from the primary monitor at the same relative x,y location. This is on a Windows 7 laptop, using laptop screen as primary and output of docking station to secondary.
