I am developing a .NET winforms application which has to capture a snapshot.

For this I have used System.Drawing.Graphics.CopyFromScreen method which works fine but when I tries to capture screenshot of particular application (Oracle EBS) then it captures blank.

It captures all images well but only when Oracle ERP is tried to be captured it returns blank white.

graphics = Graphics.FromImage(CaptureBMP);
graphics.CopyFromScreen(this.Location.X, this.Location.Y, 0, 0, Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Size, CopyPixelOperation.SourceCopy);
CaptureBMP.Save(@"C:\Temp\printscreen.jpg", ImageFormat.Jpeg);

It should capture Oracle ERP also in the picture

I think it might be an issue related to user permissions under which the Oracle ERP is running. – Vikash Atri May 21 '19 at 12:03
Does print screen button work? – Eliahu Aaron May 21 '19 at 12:11
yes, that works well and snipping tool also captures it correctly. – Vikash Atri May 21 '19 at 12:22
