rendalunit,
hay, glad you got it working dude he, he..
that PrintScreen thing goes way back in the DOS days. That was used for
those brute-force quicky print of the screen contents. ..Remeber the old
dot-matrix days he he..
In my fun Delphi projecting around, I had played w/ the idea of a hot-key
that would copy an area of the screen or a particular opended window.
I always wanted to do something like that Snag-it app floating around.
App I'm toying with:
I have something in the works, but just playing arund mind you. Anyways,
its not hot-key ready, yet. So, who knows.. But, it will accept anything that
is copied to the Clipboard and you have the option of saving to *.BMP
I guess you could say its in Alpha stage he, he.. I just want something for
myself that I can add to my stockpile of tools he, he.. Well, add picSwitch
as the first one to the soon to be growing list.
The code snip (taken from my app under development) below shows how
rediculously easy it is to SAVE the contents of the clipboard to a file..
Code:
procedure TForm1.Button6Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
if NOT clipboard.hasformat(CF_BITMAP) then exit;
image3.picture.Assign(clipboard);
if sDialog1.Execute then if sDialog1.FileName<>'' then
image3.Picture.SaveToFile(sDialog1.FileName);
end;
note, just modified above for spacing reasons..
