My screenshots are always taken with the built in command-shift-4 shortcut, which is the freeform screen capture mode (hint: tapping the space bar while the camera is over a window automagically selects that window). Then I use the annotation tools in Preview (which are 10.6+ only, I think, sadly) or Graphic Converter to do the annotations on the png. I do this all the time for support reasons because a picture is worth endless text and less open to interpretation. Grab (in the utilties folder) might let you do the same thing. There's also a FUSE file system for screen captures, so you have a directory of images of open windows at all times, but I cannot recall it's name right now. Quicktime X in 10.6+ also allows you to take screen movies, which is awesome. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
