Vista has SnippingTool.exe not as elegant, but a good tool nonetheless.

does that or the mac version allow for screenshoting a scrolling window?
Bringing that subject up reminded me of how much longer it takes me to actually screencap and tile shit together.

This Firefox addon lets you take a screenshot of a whole webpage, it's very easy too.

There are also small programs that can take screenshots of scrolling pages in multiple things (internet browsers, Microsoft word documents).

thanks guys. Most helpful.

The firefox add-on is optimal. I wish IE would be useful someday... before anyone complains, i gotta test shit on both browsers when i do css for sites so thats why im married to having to satisfy both browsers... otherwise id just use ff for everything.

lol.

Also, with print screen you can hold alt as you press prt scrn to take a screenshot of just the current window. There's another thing you can do other than screenshotting the whole screen as well I think, but can't remember what. Snipping Tool is pretty cool too for grabbing specific areas.

About that 2k Australia guy, that's a nice "present" for his colleagues, but I really hate it when people use rapidly changing colours, it really isn't nice to the eyes :P

Am I the only one who assigned their center mouse button down to printscreen? Instant success.

Shame on Molleindustria for giving in to these people. Just because people are mentally ill is no reason to listen to them, in fact quite the opposite is true.

I agree, but I also believe we have the right to ignore peoples complaints without having to fear for our lives :p

Speaking of hotkeys, am I the only one who almost never uses hotkeys in Flash? Flip Horizontal, Flip Vertical, Save and Publish are typically the only actions I will perform on the keyboard.

I have Convert to Movieclip as Space, Shift + Arrow keys to Flip Horizontal and Veritcal, Ctrl S and Ctrl Z (:

Oh and Ctrl + Enter of course.

Ditto, Only ever use the hotkeys for saving and testing project.

I only have hotkeys on my tablet. Top two buttons are for fbf animation (new keyframe and delete) and the bottom two are for saving and testing the movie.

Very efficient. I also have undo and redo on my tablet pen, but I almost never use it cuz it's easier to ctrl z and ctrl y

I used F5 F6 F7 F8 a lot back in the day but my games have been progressively having less and less frames to the point where most have like 3 or 4 frames total if that.

CMD-Z and CMD-S are god though, I use CMD-S when I'm typing in like internet forms too and it pisses me off cause its like "where would you like to save this html page?"

Hotkeys on the tablet and CTrl-z!!

The tablet hotkeys are ctrl z, new keyframe, enter, scroll along the timeline, and play! . . . i mean, enter

Undo, Save and Publish, pretty much. Oh, and Ctrl-K for align menu.. and F9 for the AS section if CS4 nicely decides it doesn't want it on my screen anymore.

I hate the CS layouts.

I use hotkeys for pretty much everything I can (like selecting tools). I like working as efficient as possible. You guys actually reminded me to add hotkeys for flipping stuff, I use those quite a lot.

ctrl+shift+v is my favorite hotkey(s) I often will wish i had it in real life.. being able to paste in place would be so useful....

I find it awkward, so I changed it to just Ctrl+V, so much better, don't know why paste in place isn't the default.

Your question is misleading. Answering "no" would mean we did see it, because you said "did anyone NOT see". I will thus answer "yes", to signify that I didn't see it.

CTRL SHIFT V = PASTE IN PLACE?!

lol jk, i knew that but i never use it, i think my fingers are not aligned for that sorta thing, thats not to say i dont paste in place though. The only thing is instead i simply right click and paste for paste in place, just a habit i got into

It took me so long to position my fingers like that,
but even longer to adjust to Photoshop's CTRL + ALT + Z.
I don't really see the point of making a difference between
'undo' and 'step backward'.
