The canvas control doesn't actually contain the image in this case; it's only used to specify the dimensions and parent of a system-managed window that gets displayed directly on top of the Canvas.
To grab the current frame you'll need to capture the contents of this system-managed window.
e.g. add this function to the WebCamWFS module:
Function CaptureFrame(SourceCanvas As Canvas) As Picture
Declare Function GetDC Lib "User32" (HWND As Integer) As Integer
Declare Function BitBlt Lib "GDI32" (DCdest As Integer, xDest As Integer, yDest As Integer, nWidth As Integer, _
nHeight As Integer, DCdource As Integer, xSource As Integer, ySource As Integer, rasterOp As Integer) As Boolean
Declare Function ReleaseDC Lib "User32" (HWND As Integer, DC As Integer) As Integer
Const SRCCOPY = &h00CC0020
Const CAPTUREBLT = &h40000000
Dim hDC, w, h As Integer
hDC = GetDC(mWnd)
w = SourceCanvas.Width
h = SourceCanvas.Height
x = SourceCanvas.Left + SourceCanvas.Window.Left
y = SourceCanvas.Top + SourceCanvas.Window.Top
Dim capture As New Picture(w, h, 24)
Call BitBlt(Capture.Graphics.Handle(1), 0, 0, w, h, hDC, 0, 0, SRCCOPY Or CAPTUREBLT)
Call ReleaseDC(mWnd, hDC)
Return capture
End Function
Use the DrawInto method of the Canvas control to copy the image to a Picture
object, then save the Picture to a file:
Dim mypic As New Picture(TargetCanvas.Width, TargetCanvas.Height, 32)
TargetCanvas.Drawinto(mypic.Graphics, 0, 0)
Dim saveto As FolderItem = GetSaveFolderItem("", "mypic.jpg")
mypic.Save(saveto, Picture.SaveAsJPEG)
