Title: Print screen
Post by: sobranie on Dec 06, 2007, 23:35:33
What we've all been waiting for, a working print screen button that dumps straight to a printer or lets you 'save as'.

The freeware d/l is the 5th item down.

Brilliant prog so far.

Thanks for the link. I've tried a few of these over the years, with varying degrees of success - a working one would be very useful.

If it works, Ted, yes. :) Mind you, normally, when I hit PrtScr, it's to paste the image into Photoshop anyway...

Sometimes works too well.
Took a screen shot once, viewed it then went away and forgot it was on ;D
When i returned it was was like the PC had frozen, only realized what it was when i hit escape. Doh!!

I have often got frustrated when working on a screen shot in Photoshop, Ted, when I couldn't get the window to close, or it wouldn't respond to the OK button. After a while I usually manage to work out that I'm clicking on an image.  ::)

Its a bugger to work out when its full screen!! well it is for me anyway ;D ;D
I use gqview but the windows equivalent is xnview. Both very good image viewers, both in usability and functionality.

Paintshop Pro has good screen capture functionality - you can frame a rectangle by clicking twice on the screen, whatever's showing, to capture exactly what you want.
