Nothing
« on: October 07, 2005, 12:40 PM »
Now I'm lost. I've been trying SC for a while and struggled a bit with the dif options/settings, mostly via trial and error. Now I was pretty brave and installed the latest version (2.00.14). I use the 'selected region' 99% of the time and given it a hotkey. But now all my screen selections and captures are blank. When using my hotkey SC opens to a perfect white screen with a thin black frame and I'm not able to select a region, It covers my monitor completely.
I'm running on 98SE and the previous version I used, 2.00.11, functioned very neatly. What am I doing wrong?

FIXED!!!
Either you know what you're doing OR you know what you're doing or both.
This is going down as the fastestest... response to a enquiry in my books and suspect in the history of customer care.
I'm at a loss for words, apart from - thank you!

great :)

actually i should be thanking you - if you hadn't posted so soon after i updated it, we probably would have had a ton of people experiencing the same problems and completely mistified as to the cause!
