Nice OSX tip: creating an image with a desktop snapshot without scripting
Perhaps the coolest, most-secret hidden capture shortcut is Control-Command-Shift-3 (or 4), which, instead of creating a file on your desktop, copies the capture into your Clipboard memory, so you can paste it where you want. 1. Press Control-Command-Shift-3 (or 4) from any application 2. Switch to Revolution and in the stack you want the image - just paste! It's all about that control key :) ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

That can be described better as: Command-Shift-4 gives you the usual caption selection to a file, and Control-Command-Shift-4 gives you the usual capture to clipboard, but if instead of dragging the mouse to make a selection, you press the space bar and then move the mouse over the various open windows, you can click to capture the one that is highlighted. It also grabs all of the window, not just the parts that are sticking out from under other windows. With all of these screen grabs that are not immediate you can press the escape key to cancel the grabbing. ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Re: Nice OSX tip: creating an image with a desktop snapshot without scripting
there is a nice way too, using apercu the preview thingy.. instead of capture. In the file menu you find these options (capture : selection/window) Il like to see the result right away in a preview window... and can then cut and paste... also you can make several copies and deal with them afterwards.. have a good day -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/Nice-OSX-tip-creating-an-image-with-a-desktop-snapshot-without-scripting-tp2217576p2217717.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Beside capturing entire windows as you've described, it will also capture the entire menu bar, any open menu, the dock, and any icon on the desktop, including the icon name. Very useful for documentation that requires showing parts of the Macintosh interface. -- Regards, Howard Bornstein --- www.designeq.com ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
