Taking a Screenshot
« on: September 29, 2006, 08:17:07 AM »
this is real easy to do,  but sometimes it's the real easy things, that ellude us.

to make\take a screenshot,,, (over on the right hand side of the keyboard, uptop, there is a set of three keys by themselves on says Pause\Break, Scroll Lock, Print Scrn\SysRq .)

get a picture you like, then Press and HOLD DOWN the Shift key while pressing the Print Scrn key.

it saves it in the Screen Shots folder of BC in BMP format

It's just Print screen, no shift needed.
I still can't read peoples minds, nor can I read peoples computers, even worse, I can't combine the two to read what is going wrong with your BC install...
