And when it comes to dialogs, we don't need screenshots at all. Next
time, try hitting ctrl-c while the dialog is in focus, you can then
paste the information as text into your editor of choice.

Making screenshots (was Re: Error when sending mail)

2004-11-07 Thread Alexander S. Kunz
Hello,

sorry to interrupt without adding to the thread, just a little hint
regarding screenshots (I hope this message is not regarded as moderation,
its not my intention... just sharing a good hint)...

Use the PNG format for screenshots & save with maximum compression. PNG is
especially streamlined for images with *low* pixel randomization, e.g.
screenshots, web graphics, etc.

Don't use JPG for screenshots. JPG is good for fotos, scans and other
images with *high* pixel randomization.

A screenshot of this message in a separate window will probably take some
30kB as PNG (lossless, full quality, full color depth), but some 100kB as
JPG with 85% quality (lossy, with artefacts around the letters, etc.)

Again, please excuse jumping in with this OT notice, I just thought that we
all would benefit from smaller attachments. Thanks. :)

Error when sending mail

2004-11-07 Thread Tim Casten
Hello tbbeta,

  I continue (sporatic) to get the attached invalid pointer error when
  sending an email.
  Here is what happens compose the email, click send, the error
  message pops up, when i click ok to ackowledge the error, the
  composed message comes back to the foreground as if it wasnt sent to
  the outbox, however the message actually was sent to the outbox, and
  if i just close the message the original message before the error
  will be sent.  If i click the send icon on the message when it pops
  up after the error message it will send the message in duplicate.

  Very Strange i understand my typing may be somewhat confusing but i
  don't know any other way to put it.

  Any ideas, this started at 3.0.2.4
