You don't need screenshot for that. Plug bitmap into Vector Displacement Map and accordingly plug that VDM into Corona material's displacement slot. Adjust displacement height as desired and press render.

Sure ... but it doesn't work in that case that posted in previous post ... maybe displacement bug?

It works just fine here. What Corona version you're using, are you aware that vector displacement requires special map, can you show what results you're getting?

You can't get vector displacement from jpg image. It needs to be in linear format. You have to bake VDM in program that is capable to do so.
