Ray,

Importing a snapshot from rect uses the computer’s graphic card to generate the 
snapshot image, whereas, importing a snapshot from an object (group, card, 
stack etc.) allows the LC engine to generate the snapshot image.

I’m travelling right now so can’t test so easy, but I’m sure if you can drop 
the ‘from rect’ you should see an improvement.

Greetings - Has anybody had any success importing a snapshot from a stack's 
window which is offscreen?

I'm looping through every card in a stack to import a snapshot using something 
like:

   import snapshot from rect myRect of window myWinId

This causes a lot of annoying screen flicker so I'd like to place the stack's 
window off screen, do the importing and then return it on screen.  But doing so 
gives me blank images for the snapshots.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
