Print screen and dual monitors

[meebers]

Checking to see if this is normal or not. When I print Screen, I get both screens and was wondering if I can choose which screen to send to the clipboard??

I get both screens too, assumed this was normal. If I want less area, I use the Snipping Tool....

that is normal since it prints screens the entire desktop to the clipboard.
My triple setup print screened,

Yeah that's normal. If you want to capture only the currently focused window, you can hit alt+Print Screen. But I don't know of a way to capture all of only one montiors portion of the desktop.

The Alt-PrtScn seems to work just fine for what I want. Tx

Yes, I had to learn this Alt + Print Screen, this will work for individual program windows or popup windows. Just click on the window to make it "active" then Alt + Print Screen will only capture the window. This works for the taskbar and gadgets as well, but as stated this method won't work for the entire window that I know of.

Kinda related...is there any Gadget or BG program that can monitor the pressing of Print Screen, and popup when pressed & ask where you want to save the screen capture? you know like how Ubuntu or other Linux Desktops do.

I know I can just do PRN SCR, press win key, type paint, press enter, then ctrl+v, then ctrl+s...but it would be so nice to have a lil app or gadget to monitor and auto popup and ask where to save.
