Hello, That's great for the Mac side, indeed. For Win32 and Linux (unless there's a similar API?), I'd still have to make my own code; I could merge both techniques in my code. Of course, if these systems also provide notifications about changed parts of the screen, that'd be the most excellent news. I think being informed of parts of screen that changes would be a great addition in the plugin. > For speed it may be good if the plugin does more here to make sure you get > best speed, e.g. compress areas as jpegs. Granted, but if other users happen to use it, perhaps it would be some kind of parameter to still be possible to get an uncompressed picture? Thank you. _______________________________________________ Mbsplugins_monkeybreadsoftware.info mailing list mbsplugins@monkeybreadsoftware.info https://ml01.ispgateway.de/mailman/listinfo/mbsplugins_monkeybreadsoftware.info
