Windows/PC question. How do I?
« on: 10 March 2011, 20:07:55 »
I need to write a little guide for someone on how to do something on a PC.

How do I get an image of an open dialogue box?

I can do a whole screen shot, but do I then have to crop out the bits I dont want, or is there an easier way?

In anticipation - Rob

When I used to have to write these virtually every week .. I used a program called "Hypersnap-dx" .. excellent bit of kit, allows you  capture any region on your screen with a couple of mouse clicks .. might be worth seeing if it still around ??
