Q: How do I take a screenshot of a long window that has content too far off the page to see?

I know about standard tools for capturing screenshots of:

     • whole screen

     • a given window

     • a given selected area drawn with the mouse

 

But oftentimes I have a window that has content outside the visible area - where I'd have to scroll up or down to see it all, and cannot see it all at one time. I usually try to shrink the magnification to get it all in my visible area, but this often doesn't work, and degrades resolution.

 

I'd really like a tool that captures the whole contents of a long window.  There's got to be a way. How?

 

Thanks. - Josh
