According to the Dictionary in LC 9.5.1 there is this command:

However I can't get it to work.

Hi Bernd
Thanks for the suggestion. But I think the evidence points away from this.
One thing I've done is
- change the script (could be just addition of a comment)
- copy entire script
- apply & close
- re-open script editor --> *change is missing*
- close IDE
- re-open LC
- open stack script

Back in the day (20 years ago) the engine/IDE ran on FreeBSD and various
proprietary unixes.
The Linux server version has been seen to work on FreeBSD back in 2011
(after installing Linux compatibility layer).
This works:

I saw a report in the forum saying that this scaled incorrectly if the
snapshot was of a text field, but in my tests this was not a problem.

Richard, just FYI
The dictionary (LC 9.5.1) does say that "export snapshot ... at size
x,x..." is supported since version 6.0, but I can't get it to change the
size of the exported image. I'll add a note here if I get it to work.

Here's another data point for this oddity.
Once the IDE starts tripping out from breakpoints and I restart Livecode to
fix the problem, the behavior in which the breakpoints stop working has

If it's not supposed to work then best to remove it from the property

A new stack with a single button will show the button's tooltip when the

Add a datagrid, and set the tooltip for the datagrid through the inspector.
The tooltip does not display no matter where the pointer is in the datagrid.
