I've put up the first version of a brand new page devoted to Commercial Site Licensing at DonationCoder.com, and added links to it on various software pages on the site.

Commercial site licensing is something we've always done on DC -- I'm just trying to do a better job of spreading the word about it.  If you know a business that would be interested please pass along the link.

Wanted to publicly thank longtime dc member app103 for the great clipart she has made for Screenshot Captor; if you've never used the Clipart feature in the program, now would be a good time to try it -- there are some useful items in there.  :up:

Seems to be working here
awesome.

I do plan to add a more modular flexible hotkey system to SC in a future version.

Hi Andrew, welcome to the site!

If you just want farr to display matching folders, then add this to your search (at end or the beginning, either way): +\

I've uploaded a new version in an attempt to fix the Quick Capture bar tooltips/hints so that they always show (I've also added current hotkeys to the hints).

It's a weird kludge that was requried, so let me know if you notice any problems.

rhyde, can you try this version and let me know if it solves the problem:

or

Yeah the tooltips don't display reliably.. i haven't been able to solve that one yet.

If I leave SSC open and active on one monitor and capture a screen from the other monitor, SSC gets minimised for a very short period of time and then gets restored to its previous state - I can live with that.

like i said if you dont want SC to self-minimize temporarily, uncheck the option in the "Capture" tab.

New version is up -- I'd appreciate any testing once again.. I reallly appreciate everyone's patience in testing this and putting up with all the updates..

I have SSC configured to minimise after a capture. However, if I already have SSC open and I capture another screenshot, I thought it would remain open but instead it gets minimised.

that's a bug -- it should leave sc back on the screen and visible if it was visible at the time of capture. 

can you download the latest version i've uploaded and see if it fixes the problem.

Note: by default SC is still configured to minimize before each capture (and should now be restored after if it was visible at time of capture).  If you want to make it so SC is left alone and doesn't minimize before a capture, that is an option on the "Capture" tab.

On further testing it looks like my fix for app's odd taskbar problem did in fact have a negative side effect -- if you triggered multiple captures in the post-capture form mode in quick succession, it could lead to a case where the post-capture form became invisible.

I've uploaded a new version now that should fix this.


Never mind, app says the original bug is back.. so you might as well hold off on testing for now.. sigh.

Just watching the video now -- it's such an impressive program.. it's rather humbling to think it was coded by just a couple of people -- by all appearances it seems like a commercial tool produced by a large team of pro coders.

Incredible work vlastimil.

Screenshot Captor / Re: Mouse follow option - idea

right, ok to summarize your results, if i understand them -- the larger "incorrect" capture happens not when you grab the current screen but when you capture the active window and it happens to be maximized.  i think that's something to do with applications that are maximized reporting larger-than-monitor sizes when maximized.  i could add an option to try to correct that..

Another observation: If I leave SSC open, it minimises (I have it set to minimise after capture) but I would have liked to see it stay open.


im not sure i understand -- you have chosen the option to minimize after capture but you want it to stay open.. then why not choose the option to not-minimize after capture? :)

or do you mean it always minimized BEFORE performing a capture and you don't want it to do that?

I had assumed that since placing the box the yellow resizing circles are present, that I would be able to hover over the circles of the object just placed and be able to resize it.


hmm i see what you mean, that is a bit confusing.  i'm not sure i can fix it to let you modify those when you have that option.  but perhaps what i can do is make escape switch you into object edit mode first, rather than directly into normal region select mode.  in that way you could at least hit escape to start modifying locations.

I just tried a screen capture on my second monitor and I noticed that on the left hand side there are around 7 pixels from the first monitor.  Similarly if I capture the first monitor it has a few pixels from the left screen.

are you doing a "screen" capture, or an active window capture of a maximized window?

Screenshot Captor / Re: Using MyImgur as upload tool in Screenshot Captor
« Last post by mouser on March 21, 2013, 02:55 AM »
Thanks for this post joby_toss!

As you know Screenshot Captor now has built-in support for some image hosting sites (ImageShack, img.io) and also supports the third party open source ShareX uploader, but it's always great to have additional tools to support additional sites, and I know Imgur is a popular site, so this is excellent.  :up:

hi joby.

the border includes parts of the main app.

This is a known and low-priority issue that happens when you are trying to capture a semi-transparent window which is a child window in front of a main form.  Basically the parent form refuses to get out of the way to let SC figure out the background transparency.

I may have a look at the issue again sometime in the future.

Thanks for the report though.

thanks bob99 too.  looks like it's close to official release day..

Can I ask the wonderful testers to grab the latest version and make sure nothing obvious broke with the latest bugfix for app's problem?

Thanks for the post. I'm always interested in a new sniper game.

Thank you for posting Kim -- I think it says something about the company that you saw this post and took the time to register and reply.

I actually thought it might be something to do with cache settings and tried a ton of them with no luck.  Then I installed the new version (which is a paid upgrade that I haven't yet purchased) in hopes that that would solve the problem, but no luck.

The crazy thing is that it's been working well for quite a while and I don't know what suddenly caused this trouble -- the only thing I can think of is that I replaced and cloned the hard disk that holds the downloaded backup files and maybe that confused it into thinking the files needed to be redownloaded.

Thinking that might be it I let it redownload a 100 gb of files, but it was never satisfied and each night it wanted to re-download the same 100gb over again..



HOWEVER, I believe it is now working -- and I'll show you the option that I set that seems to have made the difference:
webdrive_ver013.png

I don't know if that option spontaneously unchecked -- or more likely that what's happened is something went wrong making the program think the files have changed, and without that option it can't verify that without redownloading them..

Regardless, for now all seems to be working well again.  I will report if it happens again -- and if anyone else has the same problem they should check out that option.

In the popup after a screenshot is made, if you select "Save image but hide" the popup minimizes itself to the taskbar and can not be closed.


This bug did not afflict me but if anyone else was suffering from it, hopefully the new version fixes it.
(and does not introduce new bugs).

I think Screenshot Captor has earned it's stripes and deserves a promotion to version 4.0.
thanks dluby!

So the entire help can be sent to a printer/PDF at once instead of by each topic section.

No need for that, there is a pdf version of the help file here: https://www.donation...ScreenshotCaptor.pdf
It should be said that the help file could use some updating.

1) The new "Modified" count in the lower right corner is only readable when the window is maximized.  Otherwise the text is truncated and only the word "modified" can be seen and the actual count is cutoff.

nice find -- didn't notice that.

3) In Object selection mode, using Ctrl+A does not select all of the objects, but rather draws a selection box around the entire screenshot. In order to clear all objects from the screenshot it would be helpful if Ctrl+A selected all added objects so that you could hit delete to delete them.

another nice find, will fix.

as for the others, let me think about.
9799
It would be helpful to me at least if you went into a bit more detail using post capture command line feature. Other possibilities other than just the ftp mentioned.

If you want to get some experience with commandline manipulation of screenshot image files, check out the Tools menu and folder of SC.  It shows how a variety of tools can be launched on image files.

Screenshot Captor / Re: Screenshot Captor keeps saving PCX files
« Last post by mouser on March 18, 2013, 09:55 AM »
I would love to get to the bottom of this issue, and I apologize if I'm sounding harsh -- but i seriously need someone to help me understand or see this in action because i can't for the life of me reproduce it.

Furthermore, I still do not know the process which you are performing and getting pcx files... there are a dozen ways and places that SC can "save" a file -- whether it's when performing a save as, when hitting the SAVE button, automatically on a new capture, etc.

This may simply be a case where you are misunderstanding how that option is used -- or it may be a bug.  But unless someone can walk me through the steps that lead to the behavior that you think is in error and tell me exactly what actions you take and what results you get that are unexpected, there's little i can do.

It doesnt help me to say the the program is "saving PCX files" -- I need you to tell me what exact set of steps/actions you are taking that create a pcx file.

Just walk me through the steps please.
