Can someone please explain how to save a screenshot in poser 5? I'd like to document the numerous glitches that are consistently occuring in this program to email tech support. Thank you

Are you running Windows? If so, Press the "Print Screen" key on your keyboard, open an image editing program, then paste or paste as a new image, then save as you see fit.

Actually I tried this now with no success. Is there another way around it?

Go get a program called 20/20 at this site. you'll find you can customize it to take an entire screen or only the area you select with your mouse. Once you run that, then hit your prtscr key.

Thanks! The 20/20 software works excellent! Now I can email CL with a whole bunch of lovely pictures. Seeing is believing! Anyone that doesn't have this software, try it, it is very customizable. Thanks Again!

just pressing the "printscreen" button doesn't work, you need to hold down the "CTRL" key as well, it will work even without 20/20.

The keyboard shortcut is usually Alt and Print screen, then paste into photoshop or whatever prog you use. (On Windows)

All I've ever had to hit was the "PrintScrn / Sys Rq" button, open an art program, then use the paste function. I've also used Word and PowerPoint with no problem. I've done this in Windows98, Windows2000 and WindowsXP. Strange how other people have to use different key strokes. Could this difference be a function of the keyboards?

it could be, mine uses the UK settings which are different to the US settings

After discussing it with some of my friends, it seems as most windows programs should be able to utilize a simple PrtScn command to bring up dialogue as to how you want your screen captured. In Win XP home ed. its a matter of using Alt with PrtScn (usually, at least). It makes sense though, that a piece of hardware could affect this, ie. keyboard. My keyboard is an ergonomic split design from MS. I was not able to capture my screen at all until EricofSD told me about the software 20/20(freeware). This capturing software is really quite nice. It has some very helpful features. If you haven't tried it I would reccommend it. There URL is posted in Ericof SD's posting higher in this string.
