ImageEnView1.IO.CaptureFromScreen(iecsSpecifiedWindow, -1, NotepadWindowHandle);


This gives this correct screenshot from Notepad:



HOWEVER, if Notepad is MINIMIZED, then I get this undesired screenshot from Notepad:



Question: is there a way to get the correct screenshot from Notepad EVEN when Notepad is minimized?

Attached the source of the test project:

Hi

ImageEn cannot capture a minimized window. You might try:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27024554/capture-screenshot-from-selected-minimized-window

Or force display using ShowWindow and minimize it again afterward:
