How do I do a screen capture?

hello i would liek to add a function in my app to make a screenshot & save the png how i can make this?

Snapshot canvas

Take a screenshot of the current display. This triggers On canvas snapshot when the snapshot is ready, and the resulting image can be accessed with the CanvasSnapshot system expression. This can then be loaded in to a sprite or tiled background, sent to a server, or opened with the Browser object in a new tab.

You have to wait for the trigger: On canvas snapshot

i made this now, but no result

Using AJAX in file system is that you are doing it wrong.

Use node-webkit plugin to write a file or use Browser plugin to download a file

ok if i do write a file, then the options are just for adding text to a file???

I suspect any browser based system won't let you freely preset paths - otherwise sneaky people could get executable files into sensitive locations.

well, the only thing i want is just to capture a snapshot, and open that snapshot in a new tab with the browser object, how to do that???

im completly stuck
