Screenshots issue - Dagger - 2008-07-04

I can't seem to take screenshots anymore, whenever I press the scroll lock button (or whatever button it is) nothing happens.

I tried print screen + Paint, but that isn't very convenient, as I have to window maple, open paint, paste, resize it because there is a chunk of white on the right and bottom, save it, close paint and un-window MS, When I used to be able to hit one button and bam, Screenshot saved, no hassle.

I think it's because I just started playing maple on my laptop instead of my hunk of junk thing collecting dust in my room that is an old, laggy, takes almost 20 minutes to start up fully desktop computer.

#1) You could use fraps to screenshot, though it may slow you computer a little.
#2) About that hunk of white in MS Paint. Create a new file with very small dimensions. Then paste your print screened SS in there, and it should expand the size to fit the exact image.

My 2 cents

I use a program called Gadwin PrintScreen, it's free, and you can configure it to your PrintSrc key, so whenever you press that, the file pops up in a folder you select. The thing I like about it is you can set it to save in *.PNG so the images are a bit sharper than the ones from ScrLock. My laptop doesn't have a ScrLock anyway.

Gadwin is nice and all, but when I looked at my screenies it had a huge watermark on it. :mad:

I'm having the same problem -.- And I don't really like most of those screenshot programs, ohwell I'll just live with it.

Huh? None of my screenshots have watermarks on them. Are you sure you're using the free version of Gadwin? I think there's a "Pro" version but I never checked it out.

I'm pretty certain. Can you link me to your version?

I went ahead and got Fraps, it works nicely, I set it up so it takes a SS when I press the Prnt Scrn button, and I made a folder for it to save in.

Cool

This, only that after I reformated I can't use Prnt Scrn as my shortcut for fraps... still figuring out what's the cause. Frown

try windowing maple then using on-screen keyboard(programs>accessoriiees>accesiblity tools)
and clicking the scroll lock button whenever you ss

In some Laptops, the Scroll Lock Bottom, has the Blue Color, like This. However, to fix it, in your keyboard, where is the "Control" key, the Windows key and Alt key, there's a "Fn" key, Press and hold the "Fn" key and then press your Scroll Lock Bottom.

Maybe it's that it cannot choose the file, C:\Nexon\MapleStory. You can save them into the Desktop, too.

That's how my keyboard is set up, I already tried that and it didn't work.

Disregard this post. If anyone else is interested ScreenHunter is a better picture capturing program.
