Based on the comment here [1], I find the following simple method to
capture a drop-down menu:
Install the imagemagick package, then issue the following command on a terminal:
$ sleep 10; import -window root /tmp/screenshot.png
In the next 10 seconds change your active window, open the dropdown
menu and wait. You will likely need to crop your screenshot
afterwards.
