This is a known bug in LC 6.5.1 and should be fixed soon, the bug report is [ http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=11654 ]. There is an odd workaround, just set the focus to any field before issuing the 'import snapShot' command and it should work as you expect without pressing enter. If

Have you tried pressing the return (or enter) key after dragging out the rectangle? That worked for me with 6.5.1 OS X 7. Though once you've dragged out the rectangle, it just disappears. This is a little odd as it gives the impression that the area of the screen has not been selected. It is re
