Screenshot Captor / Screenshot Captor Citrix Windows Server 2003

« on: April 29, 2009, 04:10 AM »

I have a customer which might be interested in replacing the current screenshot tool with screenshot captor. Only problem is that everything is running in an Citrix enviroment on Windows 2003 servers.

Any prior experience running screenshot captor in such a constellation or do I need to test it myself?

well the voldemort key does not work in Farr - thank god. farr seems to be a bit more advanced:)

using the numeric keypad in fc and having it available for choosing results would be the ideal solution. but since i since I have every command assigned to a 3 letter abbreviation and do not use any of the searching and scoring I do not need the result list. the solution lanux suggested works fine.

Find And Run Robot / Small feature requests

- Once I have my selection list I have to press the right mouse button to get to the menu (screenshot). Instead I'd like a user defined hotkey (Alt-Enter maybe). Saves me one mouse touch... Currently I am configuring a lot and I trip over this issue every single time.
- fc Calculator is cool. But the numeric keypad does not work. This more or less renders fc useless - for me.
- In the options/Aliases I like to have the result/command as a browse column.

That's all so far

Find And Run Robot / A couple of small bugs

« on: April 14, 2009, 08:00 AM »

Now I had a little time to play around and I have found a couple of things that could be fixed.
- The focus on the "Edit Group Alias" is not on the first field "Group Alias Name" and is standing on "Cancel". You have to press Tab twice to get to it. Could be improved.
- I am trying to get my Citrix connection into FARR. Only problem is that I do not know how to escape the forward slash before the "APP". Tried every known escape character but could not get it to work.
does not work Citrix eng-app2 | C:\Program Files\Citrix\ICA Client\pn.exe /APP "eng-app2"
works, but needs external file Citrix eng-app2 | X:\PortableApps\System\Find and Run Robot\AliasGroups\MyCustom\eng-app2 citrix.lnk
- Missing a sort function in the Aliases. In on group I keep ading stuff and have 30 entries and want them ordered alphabetically. So I open the .alias file in an XML editor and do the resort there. Could be improved.
- Lastly I work in Citrix and RDP session in fullscreen mode a lot. This causes all keyboard input to be processed in the client session - even the Alt-Space which I use to call FARR. I guess this will not be easy to solve, but would be very cool.

No matter how much of the minor issues get fixed, the program is already saving me so much time - if I do not count the 20+ hours I invested in the configuration.

Thanks
