Screen zoomed in when Take screenshot is accessed in remote connections

Asked by Manjunath S

Hi

I am running/automating a test in a server using remote desktop connection. When i try to capture a image using sikuli with "Take screenshot" button, screen just zooms in and i am not able to capture icons on task bar.

This is happening with v2.0.5 as well. It happens only with remote desktop connections.

Local Machine > Remote Desktop to Server > Launch Sikuli and try to capture screen > Screen zoomed

Note :
We are facing zoom issue while taking screenshot. Sikuli is installed on Windows Server 2012 R2 and we are trying to get a take screenshot in Windows Server 2012 R2

System : Windows Server 2012 R2(remote machine for us)

Hi RaiMan,

Thanks for your reply.
Its server machine which i am accessing. I am remote connecting to that machine(Run > mstsc > provide credentials of server > Once login, launch sikuli 2.0.5 from Windows server/machine > Take screenshot > Screen gets zoomed in)

Generally I cannot reproduce such problems, since I do not have such a setup.

So just guessing ;-)

It might be related to your monitor setup together with non-recent Java versions.
Especially monitor scaling not-100% has made problems.

... or it might be related to running the remote session in full screen???

You have to just play around with the monitor settings.

I think it's related to your machine setting, why are you not use windows screen capture tool for this, you can download windows screen capture tools from the internet. https://pandahelper.mobi/. also you can try windows Key+G, Windows Key+PrtSC Key like addition shortcuts.

Can you help with this problem?
