Hi David, There was a problem with early version 2 releases where importing from a window ID crashed the app. My workaround (until 2.5 fixed it) was for my snapshot script to position the window I wanted to snapshot in a set place on the screen, make sure it was at the front and then take a snapshot of the area I wanted using global coordinates. A bit clunky but it works.
