Thank You John

As Garry says Ive been using Snapper for so long - and it takes me
half my time removing the default location/altitude stuff

Cheers guys..I give em all a try.....Dan thanks, I am in no hurry so whenever.

Thanks

Gets a bit tiresome having to load into ARC each shot.

I take all my screenies with "CBM" (that's the name)

Like I said I works just as the Print Screen button does (and only with graphical files) and saves it instantly in the predefined folder.

The naming of the file is the name of the process your in (eg. fs.exe or whatever) concatenated with a timestamp. (works with all application and the desktop or whatever, Exactly like the Print Screen)

So while you're flying, take as many snapshots as you like, and do the graphical editing afterwards....It is "As Easy As It Gets"....

Somewhat like using a digital camera, you only use the good pictures, the rest you throw away ;-)

Well that must be enough advertizing

Sounds like my kinda thing Dan

I would believe so.

Remember all good programmers are lazy, and hence their programs tends to do life a bit easy every time...;-)

Sorry for hi-jacking the thread and turn it into an advertisement.....I just thought of grabbed me..;-)

Phew!!! What a lot of traffic in just under the hour.

One thing I liked about YAFFScreen - not tried any of the others - is the fact that it will resize pictures as they are taken, if you wish, so you can run at 1280x1024 and produce 800x640 screen shots which meet formum limits....

Hmm, just tried YAF and it's OK but I have a dual monitor set-up and it won't crop like Snapper, which is a feature I like. Snapper would be great if it would remember your settings between sessions. Yours sounds interesting Dan, will it crop so that it just takes the shot of one monitor?

As I said, It works exactly like the Print Screen button does.

If you run full screen it takes full screen, if you run windowed, it contains what you see on your monitor.

Using ALT-Print Scrn on a windowed application takes a snap of the active window...

Just like Print Screen.

The only thing is that you don't have to save the snap manually until after wards.

That sound like a good idea, maybe I should implement that....

But Dan, wouldn't it be better to save the original at a larger size in case I asked you to send me a copy for my background collection? You can reduce later for a forum shot but you can't do it the other way round.
