when i use the window capture, it can capture the window image, but can not capture the dropdown menu or the combobox on the window, like this:

Capture the display instead of the window. Select your scene >> Click + in the Source Tab >> Add your display (the monitor you see this on). Crop your display to fit the window width (using ALT+click and dragging the edges will crop, just dragging the edges will resize your display).

Cheers!

thanks for your reply. but capturing and crop display may loss the menu box outsize the window,like this:

that's an interesting point, what you could do is orient your window to the right side of your screen (select window press WINDOWS KEY+RIGHT ARROW, this should then justify your fly outs to fit within your crop, it isn't a perfect solution but beyond this I am not aware of a window capture that will grab these popups.
