    Hello.
    I need to get screenshot of specific window on MaxOS.
    With Windows it looks like:

    HWND h = FindWindow(NULL, TEXT("title"));
    if (h != NULL) {
      QPixmap pix = QPixmap::grabWindow((WId)(h));
      qDebug() << pix.size();
      ui->label->setPixmap(pix);
    }
    

    But is the same task possible on MacOS?
