This is in bugzilla #1457, but as it crashes the IDE with no warning I thought it was worth mentioning on the list as well, due to the possibilities of data loss...

======================================
the syntax:
export snapshot from rect <rect> of window (the windowId of this stack) to...
makes RR 2.2 unexpectifly quit, while working fine in 2.2RC2.


Workaround is (thanks Kevin):
   put globalLoc(<topLeft>),globalLoc(<botRight>) into tRect
   export snapshot from rect tRect to...

This happens with both import and export snapshot, and seems to be the 'of windowID'
bit that is causing the problem, just doing 'import snapshot' and using the crosshairs is
fine.


The given workaround just gives an 'Expression: double binary operator' error when run
on 2.2, and doesn't help much when taking a snapshot of a particular object anyway.


Try:
put (left of this stack + left of player 1),(top of this stack + top of player 1),(left of this stack
+ width of player 1 + left of player 1),(top of this stack + top of player 1 + height of player
1) into tRect


Replacing 'player 1' with the name of your object.
