Take a screenshot of the scrollable area of a Windows 8 app?

How can I take a screenshot of the whole of a Windows 8 App? The area is larger than the height of the screen, so I want the full scrollable area.

I've tried:

  • Snipping Tool
  • Ducklink tool
  • Combinations of PrtScn
  • Snagit 12
  • Windows 8 Visual Studio Simulator

I have used SnagIt to capture Windows 7 application scrolling contents. Have not tested with Win8. http://www.techsmith.com/snagit-features.html

@duDE this question is specific to Windows 8 "Metro" apps. – conradj – 2014-07-30T11:13:13.420

Snagit doesn't seem to work on Metro apps – conradj – 2014-07-30T11:12:39.007

You're right, the scroll doesn't work on Metro apps. I've missed that as the question didn't mention Metro. – Milena Petrovic – 2014-07-30T13:29:01.807

we're not allowed to use the word "Metro" now remember :-) – conradj – 2014-07-30T15:25:23.360

That mislead me :) – Milena Petrovic – 2014-07-30T15:48:19.230
