Do you have any reason why some one shouldn't take a screen shot of your application?

And how the lack of screenshot can add to safety? If someone already gets access to computer showing the working banking screen, having screenshot just doesn't matter.

That is no reason. Why do you think so?

Easiest just to assume that there is no way.

It seemingly contradicts to OP's observation, but most likely you are right: screenshot wasn't taken only due to low qualification of the user. I am sure it still can be taken pretty easily.

This is a useless idea.

There are these things called "smart phones". Everyone has one now-a-days and they just about all have a camera built into them.

Nope. Very few people put the effort into doing something like this because it's so easy to just take a picture of the screen. They don't have to use PrintScreen any more.

I already tried to explain that in my comments, but this is a nice quick way to explain it. My 5.
Too bad OP is apparently no capable of understanding plain English.

A screen capturing application can have focus even though op's form is still maximized, or not maximized, it doesn't matter. It's focus that counts.
The screen capturer then gets input, takes a screenshot, saves it. There's nothing op's form can do about it.

I mean not if the window is maximized or minimized, its that form is shown like primary or top most form, sorry for the english
