I'm so sorry to hear about your loss, Edvard.
I lost my cat over a year ago and i still haven't gotten over it.

You gave him a great home and a place to live a full life with people who loved him.. none of us can ask for too much more than that.

Screenshot Captor / Re: Capture Window does not capture open menu

What about the bottom option on the "Window Capturing 2" tab "Do not try to use the PrintWindow Api" -- any difference if you check or check that?

If you don't care about transparent capture at corners, you can go to the "Window Capturing 1" tab and UNCHECK the option "Try to capture Aero Glass transparency effects".

This may fix your problem and also result in much faster active window captures as a nice side benefit.  Let me know if it helps.

Q2:
The hotkey help page says that ALT+O will do it, but this doesn't seem to work anymore, at least for me.  I'm pretty sure there is a hotkey for it -- anyone know it?

there's no reason the menu shouldn't be captured.

if you use normal prtscr hotkey to capture whole screen, is it captured then?

does the menu disapear from your actual screen when it fails to capture? i.e. does it close up? some hotkey combinations can cause that but it sounds like you are saying it stays on screen just doesn't show on the capture..

DC Website Help and Extras / Re: Can't post a post with just a video

« Last post by mouser on May 19, 2016, 09:29 AM »

The category for this thread is DC Website Help and Extras - yes?

wraith's post was appropriate for this section, as this is the section where we discuss features and bugs of the forum and website, and he was asking if this was an intentional feature or a bug.

and the reality is that this is a bug in the forum software, but not one that i think is worth the trouble fixing at this time.  simple as that

There is no setting for it, but note that it won't work if the entire image is visible and there is no need to pad.

how strange.. does it happen all the time, and regardless of whether you use the mouse wheel or the zoom slider on the right?
Or does it only happen on rare occasions?

« Last post by mouser on May 16, 2016, 08:17 PM »

Here's a challenge for the DC forum historians.

I'm trying to recall a youtube (i think) video series that was shared on the forum many many years ago.
It was a low budget comedy series set in space. I'm pretty sure it was from a local television station or something.
The star was an overweight guy i think who played a space captain.

Site/Forum Features / Re: Adding back an Ignore Thread feature?

« Last post by mouser on May 16, 2016, 04:55 PM »

You can already ignore users and it will not show their posts when reading topics.
I may add code that automatically hides topics started by any user you have marked to ignore from your Recent/Unread lists.

Site/Forum Features / Re: Adding back an Ignore Thread feature?

« Last post by mouser on May 16, 2016, 04:42 PM »

You can MARK threads to ignore/bookmark from the "MARK TOPIC" button at the top (and bottom) of a thread you are reading.
You can manage your marked (bookmarks, ignored) topics from the link at the bottom of the GOTO menu, or from a new menu in your profile area.

A reminder:

Ignored topics are hidden only from the recent/unread lists -- not when simply browsing a specific forum section.
