Screenshot Captor / Re: LATEST VERSION INFO THREAD - ScreenshotCaptor - v4.8.8 Beta - Sep 30, 2014
« Last post by mouser on October 02, 2014, 12:53 PM »
So, one of the things in the new version is, it will (unless the option is disabled), check each newly captured image to see if it is all one solid color, and if so, it will display an error and suggest that the user may have a security program blocking Screenshot Captor from capturing images.

This was added because of the recent trend of security apps blocking screenshot taking without telling the user what is going on.  The check for a solid color capture seems to take place fast enough that it's not noticeable (milliseconds), so it shouldn't be a concern (though it can be disabled from options).

You should not try saving in the C:\Program Files (x86)\.. directory or any subdirectories, unless you are still on Windows XP.
Instead, you need to save in a place where programs are allowed to save (like in your MyDocuments area).
Windows does weird things with virtual directories if you try to save where you aren't supposed to, and that could definitely be causing the problem.

6 hours ago is fine -- my last upload was 24 hours ago.

The most recent changes were:
  • [Feature] When SC encounters an image file of a different format than the extension indicates, it is still loaded but a warning is shown.
  • [Feature] When SC encounters an error loading an image file, it reports the error and clears the current image selection.
  • [Feature] Select-region capture can now be performed in additional ways; you can use enter key to start and end capture regions (space bar resets initial position; cursor keys nudge; C toggles cursor; Z toggles zoom); quick single mouse click can also now mark start and end positions instead of holding and dragging.
  • [Feature] By default SC now checks if a capture is all white or all black, and reports the probable cause (interference from a Security App); see Tweaks option tab to turn this off.
  • [BugFix] If using post-capture dialog after captures, and "stay hidden" option is chosen, main window was sometimes restoring if it was showing before capture was initiated.
  • [BugFix] Nudging selection with arrow keys in region-select mode had an annoying delay/stutter.

You should find a file called ConfigDir_Sample.ini in the CHS program files directory.
Rename that to ConfigDir.ini (or open it in notepad and then SaveAs ConfigDir.ini).
Then in that file you will see at the top a line like "// CONFIGDIR = %MYDOCUMENTS%"
Change that to "CONFIGDIR = C:\GCP stuff to backup\CHS" (removing the // at the beginning of the line).

The main thing that seemed to resolve it was manually creating the folders in the relevant directories (it wasn't creating some of them itself - I also had the same problem with Screenshot Captor).

I think I may understand why that is happening -- and it's definitely related to the network path issue.

You've given me a nudge to try to fix that, which I will -- however it does sound like perhaps the simplest and most foolproof thing for you to do at this point is exit CHS, and edit the ConfigDir.ini file in the Clipboard Help and Spell program files directory, and tell it to use a local path for saving it's settings.  This should solve your problems.

Question:

Is the preset menu (and Modify Format/Case dropdown) completely empty? Or does it show some predefined presets just not your newly saved ones?

I've re-uploaded a new version of 4.8.8 -- I'd appreciate if I could get as many beta testers using it (and reporting if everything works) as possible before I release it as a non-beta.

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum, Grayp  :up:

It sounds like you are doing everything right -- if the preset files are being created, they should show up in the menu and in the Modify Format/Case drop down button.

My laptop is on a server domain and therefore 'My Documents' is a redirected folder - I don't know whether that bears on it.
I am wondering if this is causing the issue.. Let me check the code and see what I see -- I might send you a debug version that will tell us where it is looking for the preset files, which might tell us what's wrong.

It has to be a simple problem, so i'm sure we can get it fixed asap.

It only shows screenshots in the current folder, not subfolders.
Double clicking on a subfolder should change into it -- it's not?

your thumbnails aren't showing at all?!?!
But you have the thumbnail panel itself visible?
Can you take a screenshot of the SC window itself and post it please.

You can download a preview of Windows 10 here:
http://news.yahoo.co...ws-10-105110101.html

That will be useful for developers who want to make sure their apps work on it
(for what it's worth, all of my apps seem to run on Windows 10 without issue).

I never knew about the link at the top of all forum pages.

yeah, it's only shown to newly-registered users, just to help avoid the possibility of people not finding the link.
