Problems with Opera
« on: August 22, 2006, 05:15 PM »
Hi,

The option to take a screenshot of a scrolling window doesn't not work with Opera.

Can this be fixed? :)

Regards

thanks i'll take another look - it used to work but the new version of opera may have broken it.

I just had to use it there today for a page that wouldnt print or allow me to copy text,

1) First time round: it repeatedly captured the taskbar (but a blackedout taskbar so ended up with repeated black stripes cutting across the image)

2) My taskbar hides (ausblenden), so i tried setting it to foreground/no hide & the screenshot worked okay.

Just tried it again, as in 1) above & it just siezed up.
[That was: Ctrl+Shft+PrtScr, then, Ctrl+Shft+Click; with Opera 9.01(edit), & WinXp]

 I realised that I hadnt used Screenshot with Opera before above post -
Today I tried to get screenshot of a selected region - it took the screenshot but then seized up. I was able to close it & the shot was there when I reopened.

today again I had a page that wouldnt print or allow me to copy all the text or allow me to view print preview - it crashes (coincidence or buggy..)

not complaining here - just trying to track things down  :)

Tried it on Opera 9.02 (development build) -- while I didn't have any problems with opera or SSC seizing up, the screenshot I got was what I saw when I clicked -- no scrolling took place.

it's not working again with 9.23 :(
the screenshot has horizontal black bars, and it takes a long while to get it.

I also just noticed that you can't capture the "content area" of Opera using the object selection capture. It just does nothing when I try to capture that.

Edit: Just noticed that disabling Red Box fixes the issue.
