How can I have some snapshots of my program?

What do you expect the print-screen button to do?

It copies the screen as an image to the clipboard so you can paste it directly into a document. If you use Alt+PrintScreen, it copies just the selected window, rather than the whole screen.

If your tutor required this, he should have at least told you how to do it!

Further for console mode applications, you can capture window content as plain text by right-clicking the window title bar, then select Edit->Mark, then select the text with the mouse, then press Enter. The selected text will be placed in teh clipboard as plain text.

@fahad: Fine then use PrntScrn or Alt+PrntScrn as described! The plain text suggestion was for information only, you did not state whether the apllication was GUI or text! I have no idea what your second comment means. The Window you are copying does need ot have teh current focus. It is a standard operating system feature - it just works and alsways has. – Clifford – 2010-11-29T22:17:44.680

while the execution of the program,the Alt+Printscreen gets a black image not the real image. – None – 2010-11-30T09:41:37.803

@fahad: Then that is an issue with your application and its rendering method perhaps. – Clifford – 2011-03-15T23:30:36.497
