Eeehh... How was it you did screenshots again?

Post by Yogi Yohan »

I seem to have forgot how to make a screenshot in SPWAW. I thought there was a special hotkey for this, but I cannot find it in the manual. Most embarrasing. Help, anyone? Please?

IIRC there is no hotkey for it.
I use Hypersnap for this task; you can find it here: http://www.hyperionics.com/

actually there is a hot key for screen captures in most windows implementations.... just hit the print screen key on your keyboard. this copies the screen shot into the clip board where it can be pasted into most applications.

This is true, generally speaking, but according to my knowledge and what I've read several times on this forum, this system doesn't work with Spwaw.
That's why people use Hypersnap (or similar).

Ummm. just a clarification... If you press the Print Screen command, it does make a screenshot, except the colours are all wierd, and the picture is almost indistinguishible.

Also, I've never figured how Hypersnap works... Ah well. Leave the taking screenshots to the experts.
