keywords: mask breakdown**, purpose

Hello Mouser,

This is for your 'Box of choices';)

For the purpose of DTP photo collaging, perhaps it's worthwhile to break up the Screenshot Captor programme into a single purpose application.

- Getting a selected region of the desktop; defining the corner points prior to displaying the image 1:1 (quite a challenge?)
- Applying a mask from the list as done in Screenshot Captor (the raster format png's great in doing that!)
- Auto saving it to the folder and left list also as done in Screenshot Captor
- Also dragging and dropping to for example Viva Designer works like a charm (as in Screenshot Captor), I'm not sure about the maintaining chores*, but it could appeal to more computer illiterate users.

Then again, it's almost MiniCap, but then for a slightly different purpose. *Perhaps it's nice to be able to turn off several other purpose functions in Screenshot Capture to get down to this? If not on a module basis, perhaps as in a modifyable GUI, I don't know.

- I can't help it, but a designer's mask with two feather lines super imposed, which can be moved and then applied, would perhaps also appeal to others. Don't forget to donate to this great initiative (dc.com)!

Thank you,
basc

ps. I have requested the Snippy author for a feather function, I thought that would also be a good suggestion. You can find this on http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/bhelpuri-users/message/685

** a positive breakdown that is :>

.. and it would be neat to put it in an ole's only page; a wysiwyg programme where you can choose a page size (such as A4), ole's, save and print. (Overlapping with transparantie would be great.) (And quit.)

You'd have to install a few gpl programmes to get the ole's available though. Har.
But that would be near DTP.

Yours truly,

IDEA: ole object to make use of [Outlook]'s [address] database with "live-autocompletion" (updated on every keystroke) on the basis of a (the first) matched string/entry.

If entered a street name (perhaps the second field in the app) the other fields are filled in accordingly, as suggested on the basis of the entered character.

Compared to the "Comparing SFV" idea it may not be that great, or interesting (I consider that a killer feature if I'm not mistaken ;), but thy fun and a bit handy nonetheless.

I may have not explaned the other idea well enough, but this idea looks like a linked form inside a document as I'll show with the excellent tools already available;

The red are the entered characters. (I had to enter more on the last occasion because I have more fish relatives living there.)

I like the preview!
