Screenshot Captor / Re: Shift + PrtScn superimposes screen

Hi tt.

Can you elaborate your description of what's happening?

Screenshot Captor / Re: Can't Download Latest Screemshot Captor
« Last post by mouser on April 17, 2014, 04:46 AM »
How strange.. It does sound like something that may clear itself up in a day -- so let us know if it is still happening after a day.
You've already tried doing everything I would advise: Trying in different browsers, restarting, checking from another computer.  And I assume that you've already confirmed you can download other files.

The only thing you might try is downloading other programs from our website.. might I suggest Find and Run Robot :)
And see if it's only Screenshot Captor that won't download for you.

It's good you can smile about it  :tellme:
can you unbrick it?

Interesting read, thanks for sharing.  :up:

Perhaps the most useful feature in this new version is the maintenance tool to identify items whose files can no longer be found -- and the error you'll see if you try to launch one.

I would just like some more testing, especially from portable users, to make sure there are no false alarms regarding those -- I'm afraid it may falsely complain about local relative files not being found.

Beta:

v1.141.01 Beta - April 16, 2014
  • [Improvement] The preferences (configuration tree) dialog was always scrolling the top Options node out of view, making it hard to find.  This top node is now scrolled into view where it is more obvious.
  • [BugFix] Automatic fixing up of form position/size on resolution change was sometimes not being engaged.
  • [Improvement] Clarified onscreen instructions for adding a node that opens a folder.
  • [MinorFeature] The exit menu item on launchbars can be disabled.
  • [Feature] You can now use Ctrl plus Up,Down,Left,Right when in the configuration tree to move nodes around the hierarchy easily.
  • [Feature] Supports use of environmental variables and %APPDIR% like replacements in command launch arguments (needs testing!).
  • [Feature] An error is now reported if user tries to launch a node pointing to a non-existent file (needs testing).
  • [Feature] Added new maintenance menu item to check entire tree for any filepaths that may no longer be valid (user has option for trying to auto fix them).
  • [Bugfix] LBC was not properly identifying full screen applications, causing it not to unhide when it should if current window was maximized (but not full screen); if you have turned off the option to Keep LaunchBars "On Top" and you use AutoHiding docks, you should try re-enabling this option.  Should make it possible to use full screen games without LBC waking up.
  • [MinorFeature] You can now set custom size of separators.
  • [MinorFeature] You can now set custom margins for docking bars.
  • [MinorFeature] You can now set minimum width/height for items (for entire dock or overide for single items).

LaunchBar Commander / Re: Can LBC be transformed into a task bar
« Last post by mouser on April 16, 2014, 09:16 AM »
At the very least it seems like i should be able to provide a way to specify two fonts(+sizes), one for root level of dock bar and one for the submenu items, etc.

I went to go implement this but found it already exists:

Implemented; will be in next release.
7909
Thank you for letting me know about this so quickly!

I forgot to update a setting to let it know what version it is for update purposes -- that's what happens when i wait 4 months to release an update -- I forget how to do it properly!

New version is uploaded -- if you update once more it should stop giving you that message.

I'm rewatching "The Puffy Chair", an indie movie by the Duplass brothers -- who I think are geniuses.  One of my favorites.

Also, you may want to try landscape orientation if the image is longer than it is tall.

The print *BUTTON* sends the screenshot directly to the printer without a preview.

Try using the Print menu item under the File menu (not the button) at least once, since it shows you a preview where you can change margins to 0.

Let me know if that helps.

Screenshot Captor / Re: Command-line option starts a new instance of SC
« Last post by mouser on April 14, 2014, 09:33 AM »
With SC already running and using the run command I get the "Hello there! You've tried to launch a new copy..." popup. I got a UAC popup 1st asking if I wanted it to run.

thanks bob -- so your single-instance detection is working correctly.
ps. the new beta does away with that "hello there" message.

« Last post by mouser on April 14, 2014, 09:09 AM »
How strange. Ok i'm looking into it now.

Can anyone else confirm that they get 2 instances or whether their installation properly limits it to a single instance?
My XP and Win7 installs both behave properly.

Screenshot Captor / Re: Command-line option starts a new instance of SC
« Last post by mouser on April 14, 2014, 08:34 AM »
Ok that's a big clue.  That does *not* happen here (Win 7).
So it seems to me you are experiencing a generic non-specific failure of the single-instance behavior of SC.

Now the question is why.

1. Can anyone else test and see what behavior they see?
2. Lanux -- in your original post you say you end up with 2 instances in tray.  Can I ask you to elaborate? Do you end up with 2 separate copies of the program running? Or just 2 system tray icons?
3. Lanux, can you see if the same behavior happens if you EXIT all running instances, and then start them both up (let the first fully start before launching second) with your new shortcut?

« Last post by mouser on April 14, 2014, 08:00 AM »
Ok, I'm on it.

Oh, you could do a test for me -- can you make another shortcut to a second instance with NO commandline parameters -- and tell me if it launches a second instance in that case?

Screenshot Captor / Re: Command-line option starts a new instance of SC
« Last post by mouser on April 14, 2014, 07:44 AM »
Assuming you are sure its launching the same ScreenshotCaptor.exe location as is already running (i.e. not two different versions of SC installed in different locations), then this is a bug, and I will look into it today and try to fix right away.
It shouldn't be launching a second instance.

« Last post by mouser on April 14, 2014, 07:28 AM »
does that still happen even with the new beta?
7923
The solution that worked for me was manually adding the folders that make up this path...

Actually that is VERY interesting information!

It may suggest that the problem that SC may be having on some of these networked directories is not with the core functionality of reading and writing to those network share directories, but only with some bug in CREATING FOLDERS in those directories?

I would love to hear more about this possibility and any evidence to support it.

Very interesting reading -- thank you for sharing.  Python 3 is a debacle.

Sorry it's been so long since I released an update!

As usual when it's been a while, I'm going to be a little cautious and just release some minor fixes first, then I'll try to dig a little deeper and add some features a little later.

v4.8.2 BETA - April 12, 2014
  • [MinorChange] Removed the discontinued imm.io image hosting service from uploader services; defaulted to imageshack (supporting both anonymous and non-anonymous accounts).
  • [MinorChange] Clarified warning about image files being visible to public if uploaded to anonymous hosting account.
  • [MinorChange] If a second instance is launched, SC no longer displays a warning message, it simply un-minimizes the first instance.
  • [BugFix] Pixelating a tiny region with large grid size could result in floating point error.
  • [BugFix] Red box capture mode was capturing regions that were missing 1 pixel width around each edge.
  • [BugFix] Resizing image from resize form could shrink the close-up zoom panel.
  • [BugFix] Trying to undo from resizing image would not undo object size changes (hit undo twice to do this now).
  • [BugFix] Automoving old screenshots at startup had not been working in recent versions.
  • [MinorFeature] Added option to start the auto-capture timer at startup.
  • [MinorFeature] New option to immediately jump cursor to arrow text edit box when selecting/adding line arrows for quick labeling and label changes (see drawing object options tab).
  • [MinorFeature] Added option to disable docking behavior of Quick Capture Bar.
  • [MinorFeature] Added detailed warning and confirmation dialog with tips before attempting to resize an image containing objects.

Download link in first post of thread.  I'd appreciate any beta reports.
