Screenshooting particularly is very special.

Unless your program is the compositor or is intimitely tied to the
compositor, you simply cannot do it.

That is the simple answer. If you want to know the whole story, see
the email threads starting at:

There may have been more email threads about screenshooting and
recording, but I don't remember when.

So, each link above starts a thread, and if you click messages
sorted by [thread] link, you'll get a list of the other messages in
the thread.


Thanks,
