General Software Discussion / Re: Multiple printer defs under W7. Anyone have the key to this?

« Last post by tomos on October 11, 2011, 04:21 AM »

FWIW, I'm pretty sure I used the "Add a new printer" method for this (I was unable to make a copy of the printer). It showed same as your's above - in sub-menu under printers, but as seperate printer in print dialogue. But it *does* work here.
Again FWIW also with a Canon printer - connected per usb cable.

wasnt the confusion really started by "subscription" licenses where (I dunno here - I dont have any like that) the software would no longer work after subscription period had ended?

« Last post by tomos on October 06, 2011, 01:10 PM »

I wish the guy luck (whatever is going on for him now, I dont think Apple/etc is important any more anyways...)

a few other comments/thoughts -

• a person and what they do are different things (and no, I'm not making excuses for anything there)
• why wouldnt he be afraid of dying?? (related to Superboyacs quote above)
• I think to be a successful CEO or top-manager [of a corporation at any rate] you need to be driven, obsessive, workaholic. Why should Jobs be any different - well, I know, there's loads of possible reasons why he could have been different, but he wasnt...
• I think he was a great innovater-inventor - most inventors are just working on what has been done before anyways
• His great "strengths" were also probably his greatest weaknesses (e.g. think control-freak)
• Giving is often over-rated. I mean it's often done by people who have already screwed the world - and really, if they want to give, they could start by trying to introduce fair work standards/wages etc as discussed elsewhere here on dc

(it's just a new exe, not a full setup).

-mouser (October 05, 2011, 08:17 PM)

so, should we simply replace the exe in a current install?
Or does this work on it's own? OK it works on it's own I think:

I tried to follow instructions on previous page
https://www.donation....msg260751#msg260751

With an Aero glass theme (win7 x64):

• When I Ctrl+Shit+Click within the notepad window, I get no reaction from SC - depending on where I click, some of the text gets selected.
• I also now cant get rid of the red-boxes. Escape doesnt seem to work - I even successfully did a regular screenshot (Ctrl+PrtScr) and they still showing.
• None of the other shortcuts displayed in the red-box frame work either - in Notepad, FF, or Dopus.

Restart SC.
Classic theme:
exactly same results

Scrolling capture in FF7 creates a series of 'cuts to black' and results in a single image; it does nothing that I can see in IE7. I say this in the full expectation that I'm missing something, I'll have to go back and look at the videos, but in case it's happening to anyone else.
