Hello! I have encountered such a problem. I need to get real time screenshots of the display (monitor) and then process this data within matlab. Is there any way to get screenshots from matlab?
Best regards, Alexey.

@Nikhil: What about using the tool from the FileExchange, which has been suggested already?

That only captures MATLAB figures, not the screenshot of the whole computer monitor. It's not like activating some app and doing Alt-Prtscreen, or just typing Prtscreen to get everything on the desktop. Any way to do that?

If you give it the root object handle (0) and an x,y,w,h array, it will capture anywhere on the screen.
