Folks: In case anybody is interested in this, I found a fix for my snapshot problems. Briefly, here it is: 1) snapshot including cursor: restarting my computer made the problem go away. Snapshot no longer captures the cursor image. 2) snapshot not getting invoked correctly in LC 6.7 dp4, but working in LC 6.6: I put an “unlock screen” command before the snapshot command and it worked (voila!). Why it worked in LC 6.6, I have no idea, but perhaps the bug was in 6.6.
That’s it. I guess I’ll start using 6.7 dp4 now. It seems to do what I need it to do.
