Banjo Capo Question

$

Ok. So lately I have had some confusion with my capo and my banjo. I understand moving the capo to different frets will affect the key (putting the capo of the 2nd fret will change the key to A) but, where I am confused is the finger positions. 

So, say I'm playing in open G and want to play an A cord, I will use my standard G shape finger positioning up on the 7th fret. Now say I'm in a new key where I'm capoed and want to play an A chord, do I use the same finger position on the 7th fret from the capo? 

I guess my real confusion is the finger shapes. Overall when capoed do those shapes stay the same? Does this make sense??
