I hope that makes sense!
Thank you. My problem is that I am using a custom external that places content generated by the external in to the stack window (via the windowID of the stack that I pass to the external). If I do export snapshot of stack xxx, the content placed in the stack window by the external is not recognized and included in the resulting image. We may have to have the external modified to return an optional image that we can place on a stack for printing. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
