8 WhiteStork Screenshots List
11 This document describe what screenshots are needed for each version of
12 WhiteStork. Furthemore, there are presented tools that can be used to take
13 screenshots on maemo platform in this document.
19 There are few applications and tools that can be used for taking
20 screenshots on maemo platform based system. Some are listed here.
22 2.1 osso-screenshot-tool
23 It is the best method to make a screenshots, but only when You have got
24 access to the devica through SSH. Executing command:
25 osso-screenshot-tool file.png
26 will result in taking immediately screenshots and putting it into file.png. So
27 it is possible to give a file particular, specyfic name and place it in any
28 directory You want. When there is no SSH access it will need XTerminal installed
29 on the system and make it harder to specify a name. To download tool go to page:
30 http://repository.maemo.org/pool/maemo/ossw/o/osso-screenshot-tool (11/7/2007)
31 or google for phrase "osso-screenshot-tool".
34 On page http://inz.fi/blog/2007/06/21/screenshooting-made-easy-ish/ You
35 will find out more about this tool. There is a big disadvantage of MH Shot Tool
36 - it does not support (11/7/2007) delayed screenshot.
38 2.3 Maemo Screengrabber
39 Go to http://tuomas.kulve.fi/blog/2007/01/17/maemo-screen-grabber/ or to
40 http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2007/maemo-screengrabber/ for
41 more information. It is wrapper for osso-screenshot-tool that allow you to
42 take a screenshot by activating menu position in task navigator. It will wait
43 for 5 seconds and take a screenshot, placing it in Image folder.
46 This tool can be downloaded from
47 https://garage.maemo.org/projects/load-applet/. After instaling load-applet, You
48 should place it in status bar. It allows for delayed screenshots, but there is
49 no option to change defualt folder for images (Images).
52 It is possible to install VNC Server on the device
53 (http://mike.saunby.googlepages.com/x11vncfornokia7702). If server is running it
54 is easy to connect to it from Your host computer and take a screenshots directly
55 from Gnome/KDE/Ms Windows system.
58 If application is able to run on scratchbox, screenshots could be taken
59 from it. This method is not recomended as far as sometimes applications looks
60 different on scratchbox and on device. Furthemore scratchbox does not have all
61 functionalities that is accessible on maemo platform, so not always there will
62 be option to show all application's functions. At last, but not at least,
63 screenshots taken on real device looks muche better than ones taken on
67 For each version of WhiteStork there could be different functionalities,
68 so it is needed to distinguish them (versions) in screenshots list. Newer
69 version has always all screenshots from the previous one (unless there is
70 straightforward specified that some screenshots are not actual in new version)
71 plus some new, presenting functions and GUI parts tha were not present in old
72 version. Furthemore, from time to time it is helpfull to put complete list of
73 screenshots for particular version, to prevent the user from browsing whole
74 document and assemble full screenshots list from many versions - such a list
75 is titled: "WhiteStork [COMPLETE LIST] (version x.y.z)"
