SaveScreen

The SaveScreen function saves a screen area. To restore it use the RestoreScreen function.

HANDLE WINAPI SaveScreen(
  int X1,
  int Y1,
  int X2,
  int Y2
);

Parameters

X1,Y1,X2,Y2

Screen area coordinates. If X2 or Y2 is equal to -1, they are replaced with screen right or screen bottom coordinate correspondingly. So SaveScreen(0,0,-1,-1) will save the entire screen.

Return value

The return value is a handle that can be passed to RestoreScreen. All handles allocated by SaveScreen must be passed to RestoreScreen to avoid memory leaks.
