Easy Way To Screenshot Whole Region From Igv?

Question

[thejustpark]

Dear troops,

I use IGV to present mapping of my reads to a genome successfully. Now, I want to capture the picture for my paper. Fortunately, my template genome is not that long, but it doesn't fit in one screen neither. Do I have to screen shot piece by piece and put them together manually?

Is there any better way?

Thanks,

You can control IGV through a Port : http://www.broadinstitute.org/igv/PortCommands

See my blog for a shell script: http://plindenbaum.blogspot.fr/2011/07/controlling-igv-through-port-my.html
