John,
The 'import snapShot' command works OK if I pass parameters such as 'import
snapshot from rect 250,250,450,450', but not if I use it without parameters to
allow the user to snap an area from screen using the crosshair cursor, so a
button with…
on mouseUp
import snapshot
end mouseUp
…will return a garbage image when clicked and an area chosen, it's the correct
size, but just full of random pixels that don't even come close to representing
the snapped area.
There was a long standing problem with 'import snapShot' on Mac and Windows
(not sure about Linux), where it would often include some of the grey colour
used to define the snap area, so hopefully this will push RR into fixing the
issue.
I'm on a quad core Intel MacPro running Mac OS X 10.7.3 and LC 5.0.2 and this
behaviour started as soon as I upgraded to Lion. It has also been confirmed as
a bug by the engineers at RunRev.
Are you are passing parameters with your use of import snapShot?
