Re: no selection rectagle with screen grab?

[Remembrix1]

Hi Everybody,

Just officially joined. I don't see the problem on my Aluminum
Powerbook. However, I have been trying to figure out why I get a black
background when I export a snapshot via a script that selects the
area. When I alter the scrip to force manual selection, this doesn't
happen. It exports fine then.

Any thoughts?

Thanks for the verification, Paul. It seems we're finding consistent 
results, so I've added this info to the bug report:

It works for me Richard (Rev 2.8.1 Build 472, Mac OS X 10.4.10). I see
the cross-hair cursor and when I drag, a gray translucent rectangle
shows what I am getting.

Cheers,

Thanks for the info, gang.

I just updated Terry Judd's bug report on this with the information 
we've discovered today:




It used to work so well, disappointing to have to consider pulling a 
feature from one of my apps

Freaky:  same Rev version, same OS, but I don't get the selection  
rectangle.


I'm on a MacBook Pro, FWIW.

What syntax are you using?  I used:

  export snapshot to tMyVar as jpeg

Anyone else not seeing the selection indicator?



I wonder is it an Intel Mac thing? I'm testing on a G5 iMac. I used
your syntax but hard-coded a file path name since I was only testing
from the message box.

no selection rectagle with screen grab?

[Richard Gaskin]

In all versions I've tested prior to v2.8, the "export snapshot" command 
provides some indication of the rectangle being selected by the user.


In v2.8.1, at least on OS X, I see no indication of this selection at all.

This is, if you'll pardon the pun, a drag.

I have a recollection of this being a known bug, and having been fixed. 
 If so, is anyone else still seeing this?  Am I suffering from False 
Memory Syndrome?
