Top 8 C++ ScreenShot Projects

  • flameshot

    Powerful yet simple to use screenshot software :desktop_computer: :camera_flash:

    • Project mention: Show HN: I built a free in-browser Llama 3 chatbot powered by WebGPU | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-05-03

    I'm using flameshot ( https://flameshot.org/ ), which sounds pretty similar, but FOSS and cross platform.

  • ksnip

    ksnip the cross-platform screenshot and annotation tool

    • Project mention: Some might not see how much work is/was to maintain xorg server | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-29

    can also be used in non-KDE X11 desktop environments.

    which doesn't really explicitly say much, and in fact the only tool I could find that claimed to be able to support everything was ksnip, which seems to work fine with wlroots but beyond that https://github.com/ksnip/ksnip#known-issues outlines the situation well enough; KDE is at least only temporarily broken, but GNOME isn't going to improve because GNOME did that on purpose. Now, that readme says you can use xdg-desktop-portal, but I have a GNOME+Wayland machine on hand, and I couldn't get it to actually work. I think what's supposed to happen is that every time I do a screenshot it prompts for permission, which I wanted to verify so I could complain that that was totally unreasonable, but what actually happens is that it just fails, which is... not better. Oh, and while searching for solutions to that I found flameshot, but that just refuses to even run. So... maybe someday the portal solution will work; in the meantime, I feel comfortable describing the situation as Wayland not having a uniform working way of taking screenshots.

    [0] In particular, so we can avoid the situation from X11 where a load of drawing primitives are baked in that nobody has any use for anymore.

  • vokoscreenNG

    vokoscreenNG is a powerful screencast creator in many languages to record the screen, an area or a window (Linux only). Recording of audio from multiple sources is supported. With the built-in camera support, you can make your video more personal. Other tools such as systray, magnifying glass, countdown, timer, Showclick and Halo support will help

  • tev

    High dynamic range (HDR) image viewer for graphics people

  • slop

    slop (Select Operation) is an application that queries for a selection from the user and prints the region to stdout. (by naelstrof)

    • Project mention: selx - A Minimal X11 selection tool | /r/suckless | 2023-10-23

    Since selx is meant to be minimal, it doesn't support some of the fancy stuff such as slop's custom opengl shaders etc.

  • InjectableGenericCameraSystem

    This is a generic camera system to be used as the base for cameras for taking screenshots within games. The main purpose of the system is to hijack the in-game 3D camera by overwriting values in its camera structure with our own values so we can control where the camera is located, it's pitch/yaw/roll values, its FoV and the camera's look vector.
