suddenly my captures are all B/W
« on: January 15, 2007, 04:10 AM »
not sure what i did (if anything) but when i capture a screen it now shows color, for 1 second, then changes to black/white!
this happened with my older 2.11 ver, and i just DL'd 2.26 tonite thinking a default setting had been changed (by me) but i get the same result with the latest DL.

any ideas what i need to do to correct this?

older captures (in color) when loaded into SC, are fine.
i even tried closing and reloading the B/W thinking it would revert to color, but no.


thx in advance - i really enjoy this proggy... but i really need my captures to be in color :P

you sure are spoiled  :P  hehehehe

i'm trying to think what would cause this.. Couple of possibilities:

Check in your OnCapture tab of preferences, in far right - see if you have it set to grey the area outside of active window.

If nothing strange there, try fully EXITING screenshot captor from tray and restarting.  If it still does the B&W thing then email me your ScreenshotCaptor.ini options file (mouser@donationcoder.com) and i'll see what i can find.
