Thank you, both Björn and Thomas. After following your instructions the built-in Skymap screen grab now works fine for me. Perhaps this feature was already explained in the Skymap documentation and I missed it, but hopefully this thread was helpful to other users too. Thanks again. -- Bob Jones -----Original Message----- From: Björn Gimle [mailto:b_gimle@algonet.se] Sent: Sunday, February 29, 2004 10:48 AM To: Bob Jones; SeeSat-L@satobs.org Subject: Re: Skymap Screen Grab No, standard screen grabs don't work in XP for DOS boxes. Rob has built a "C" command for capture - it produces a BMP file (which you may want to convert to .gif or .jpg to make it smaller) -------------- From: Thomas Fly Björn neglected to mention that to use the screen capture feature, you must have the "cursor" on the screen, by pressing one of the arrow keys, or + or -. Then you press c. I also use SnagIt (practically every day), but as you've found out, it won't capture a DOS screen. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
