Can't get Screen Shot
« on: February 19, 2012, 07:55:38 AM »
I've tried the Alt-S to take a screenshot on a saved film and can't get anything to happen.
What am I doing wrong?

I don't think Alt+s works in filmviewer, it's only available in-game.

When in film-viewer, press on your keyboard "Prt Scr" once, then run MS Paint and select "Paste".

Or in windows accessories, snipping tool. It will allow you to select which portion of the screen you want a pic of.

Get the shot set up the way you want, then press the Full Screen button in the Film Viewer.  Next, hit Print Screen button on your keyboard.
After that, hit the Esc key and paste the image in Paint.  Save as a png file for best quality.
