Var
C :Tcanvas;
begin
C := TCanvas.Create;
C.handle := GetDC(0);
// now the C canvas points to your whole screen.
when done you must release the handle
ReleaseDC(0,C.Handle);
c.free;
////

Check windows sdk, there is a source (albeit in C++) that explains this. Easily translated to pascal too.

The X Window System is a whole other kettle of fish. Start here:

i found the example and i convert it into pascal...
but i would like to put datas into a TBitmap... is it possible ? and how can
i do that ?
i saw function GetObject but it doesn't seam to work...

var hdcScreen: HDC;
hdcCompatible: HDC;
hbmScreen: HBITMAP;
hSelectObject: HGDIOBJ;
bmp: TBitmap;
begin
bmp := TBitmap.Create;
bmp.width := 1280; //static values just for test
bmp.height := 1024;

hdcScreen := CreateDC('DISPLAY', nil, nil, nil);
hdcCompatible := CreateCompatibleDC(hdcScreen);

hbmScreen := CreateCompatibleBitmap(hdcScreen,
GetDeviceCaps(hdcScreen, HORZRES),
GetDeviceCaps(hdcScreen, VERTRES));

if hbmScreen = 0 then
messagedlg('hbmScreen', mtError, [mbOK], 0);


hSelectObject := SelectObject(hdcCompatible, hbmScreen);

if (hSelectObject = NULLREGION) or (hSelectObject = GDI_ERROR) then
messagedlg('Compatible Bitmap Selection', mtError, [mbOK], 0);

if not BitBlt(hdcCompatible,
0, 0,
bmp.Width, bmp.Height,
hdcScreen,
0, 0,
SRCCOPY) then
messagedlg('Screen to Compat Blt Failed', mtError, [mbOK], 0);



////////////////// what must i do there ???? //////////////////



DeleteObject(hbmScreen);
DeleteDC(hdcCompatible);
DeleteDC(hdcScreen);
bmp.Free;
end;

Try:
