Cannot do Shift+PrtSc capture on secondary monitor
« on: January 28, 2009, 02:02 PM »
When I hit Shift+PrtSc I get the "+" cursor to select a rectangular area... But this disappears if I move the mouse to the secondary monitor...

there are 2 methods of selecting regions -- you can choose the other method from Red Box options, which will solve your issue, OR you can move your cursor to the 2nd monitor before initiating the capture.  i will try to fix this in the future.

Region capture for multiple monitors has been implemented in the latest beta.  :up:
