Klaus Major wrote not long ago:

Yes, it reads:

export snapshot [from rect[angle] rectangle [of window windowID]] \

Has anybody succesfully used this command?

I tried EVERYTHING, like storing the windowId into a variable first
etc...


Klaus and Ken,

The "export snapshot" command works with Rev 2.1.2 or Metacard 2.5.1 or higher (2.2.B1 and 2.6a2).

Elementary script:

on mouseUp
put the rect of image 1 into trect
put the windowID of this stack into StackID
export snapshot from rect trect of window StackID to file "ImageTest.jpg" as JPEG
end mouseUp


If you want to save snapshots consecutively in a special folder "images" - if I understand correctly this is about what Ken wanted - something like this works (tested on Windows XP with Metacard 2.5.1):

on mouseUp
put the directory into OldDir
put OldDir&"/"&"images" into NewDir
set the directory to NewDir
#===computes the number of files in folder "images"and sets new image name ==
put the number of lines of the files into ImageNumber
put "ImageTest"&(Imagenumber + 1)&".jpg" into NewImageName
#==========================================================
put the rect of image 1 into trect
put the windowID of this stack into StackID
export snapshot from rect trect of window StackID to file NewImageName as JPEG
set the directory to OldDir
end mouseUp


Cheers,

Wilhelm
