Hit the "Print Screen" key. It should be right next to the pause/break key. That will give you a screen shot and place it in your GPL folder as something like GPLss01.pdf, or something like that. Then just run the, I think it's called PDF2TGA.exe. I don't remember the command line to use though. It should be in your manual and maybe in your readme.txt file. -- ========================================= Mike Barlow of Barlow Racing� ========================================= http://members.xoom.com/BarlowRacing/ Racing online with the help of......

How can you capture screen images in GPL (such as the newspaper)? I tried Hypersnap, but could not get it to work... Suggestions appreciated. -- Jaz Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

Never mind! I forgot to enable Special Capture in HyperSnap. Now it works fine, it helps to read the manual! Jaz Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

Simply press [Print Screen] when the image appears.

Nope, that doesn't work (on my system anyway) I think it's because 3dfx images can't be pasted to the clipboard.

It doesn't send the image to the clip board!! It sends the image to the GPL directory as GPLss01.pdf (or something like that). Then you have to use the PDFtoTGA application included with GPL. That will convert the file to a TGA file format. Then you have to open it up using a paint program that can read the TGA format. -- ========================================= Mike Barlow of Barlow Racing? ========================================= http://members.xoom.com/BarlowRacing/ Racing online with the help of......

Odd, Jaz. It works perfectly fine with my V3!
