|
|
Can anyone tell me how to capture a shot of my PDA display and transfer it to my PC. Someone suggested a program called Magicss. I tried that, but all I can capture is the Program menu screen which is displayed immediately before I start MagicSS! What I want to capture is the display from TTN3 in demo mode.

Stick with MagicSS, it does work. Assuming you have a PDA with four assignable buttons, (Calendar, Contacts, etc.) I suggest you assign one of these buttons to run MagicSS. Then when you want something you want to capture, just press the 'Magic' button. You will need to assign each shot a name, as MagicSS defaults to 'capture.bmp' and obviously you can only save one file of this name on your PDA.
It's easy to transfer screenshots to your PC and edit them.
Holler if you need any further help. _________________ Tim

Lutz, our US Editor has writen a Screen Capture Utility, I know he's one of us but I must say it's better than any others I've tried.
You can download a trial version from Handango.
Apologies for the shameless plug but it is very good indeed! _________________ Darren Griffin |

Why didn't I think of that! Using a button worked fine, and I now have exactly what I wanted on my PC. Many thanks
