autoscroll capture need fixed bug.

[RetupmocSoft]

Hi mouser,

First off, I'm impressive with autoscroll capture, it amazing feature, and this is I first time use Screenshot Captor.

I always use your Process Tamer for long time.



I face some series bug, here is a list: (2.36.01 on XP SP2 with latest updates.)

1. Region larger then half screen will cause non-stop looping, need Task Manager to shutdown Screenshot Captor, and leave large area black color remain on desktop.

2. If region of vertical less than half of desktop, it may capture whole screen inside without problem, but horizntal will not (this problem offen cause by browser can't handle too narrow desktop).

3. I found when autoscroll start, 1st will run through full scale (detection ??), 2nd will actually capture, some content inside capture area are changed in background, so capture-picture are strange.

4. due to (2), when I maximum a window (browser), I can NOT autoscroll capture.

i'm gong to try to do some improvements to autoscroll capture very soon, and the following two things will be highest priority for me to do first:

1) a new semi-automatic mode which should work when all others fail but require user to page down manually.
2) ability to escape out of failed autocapture faster
3) ability to tell sc different ways to autocapture which might be like a wizard interface that will hopefully be able to find a method that works on even tricky programs.

No biggie for me, but thought I'd let you know, mouser. This happens to me each time I try to scroll-capture my Firefox 2 Addons view (19 addons installed). The red border detects the scrollable window correctly, but when I ctrl+shift+click to start capture it will enter a loop where the capture area flashes in black, the scroll never moves, and the area is left black even after I hit escape. I can reproduce this every time, on both monitors. Using v2.37.03 on xp sp3, 2 monitors, nvidia gfxcard+drivers. Scroll-cap of other windows such as webpages works flawlessly on both monitors.

i had a somewhat similar experience with capturing Firefox's Add-ons window.

IE7 Addon from lizardtech (DJVU Viewer)
Same problem basicly. Window scroll, screen flickers, only captures first visible part of window,sometime hangs

Dunno if it helps but I experience the same thing, latest build "Screenshot Captor v2.42.01 by DonationCoder" the updater could find
Glad it's not me but would be nice to see it fixed

Cheers

mouser,

This is the same problem I have posted about in other threads here. All replies have always made me feel as if I was the only user experiencing this problem. Not really happy that others are seeing it also, but at least I know it is not just me!

Add me to the list of people having this problem in firefox 3 / Windows Vista.

[mouser]

ok maybe it's time to look at improving autoscroll capture once again..

I have the same problem with autoscroll using Windows Vista Home Premium. The sc red detection windows appears correctly, I start the auto scroll capture, sc blinks as it moves through the window, and both the up-down and left-right scroll bars in the window move fine. But in the end, ONLY the first visible portion of the window is captured (in my case, about 10% of the total scrollable window).

Hi mouser,

again, thanks your "scroll" capture,

and again, it's me. (open this thread)




New bug report on Vista Ultimate SP1 with latest update, Firefox 3.08

this URL can't be auto-scroll
http://www.ixpub.net...hread.php?tid=719544

just like "clear" say, only several blink inside red-region, but only capture visible region.

the same URL running on IE8, "near" no problem. (maybe this problem cause by FF 3.08 ??)



EDIT:
IE8 has a problem!
the bottom line of 15 pixel (height) are white region from left to right. (I using photoshop to measure.)

it seem auto-scroll "already known" there has some data need to be captured,
but no data actually put in,
cause white region.
