Hi,
Is it possible in linux to take a screenshot of a workspace while being in another one ?
Thanks in advance

A:
Try using wmctrl to switch to the workspace briefly, like this:
wmctrl -s 1; scrot; wmctrl -s 0

Timing issues are a potential problem with this solution...

I don't think there's an easy way, since windows in other workspaces are hidden. Compiz keeps them open, so this may work better with it.

ok so does compiz have a library we can use to do such thing ?
