RDSS printing - Pace and Cap

uncleroughy · 12-15-2010, 10:18 AM

About a year ago I was able to print out the BLBL screen but now I can't. Can someone remind me of the simplest printout procedure?

Uncle,

Use a screen capture program like Snagit, or Screenhunter (google them), or Windows Snip tool (win Vista or Win7). Uset these tools to capture a rectangle of the screen, then print that capture directly, or else cut and paste a group of screen captures into a Word or Wordpad document, then print the document.

Mr Ted
Is it possible to add a teeny tiny Print button in rdss ? instead of the snap,
pop,snag,snip crackle method to print, which sometimes can be a real
drag, thank you

Peter,

Yes indeed, a Print button and printing of most screen displays is a part of the next version of RDSS (Rdss 2), though it is not something I can simply add in to a minor update, such as recent track code changes. In the new year, I will be discussing a lot further where RDSS 2 stands.

Just FYI, with Snagit installed, it takes me 1 keystroke plus 2 mouse clicks to produce a printout of any screen readout I want (which is why that, or another screen capture tool, is the recommended interim solution). Did you need a few more pointers on how to manage that?

Mr. Ted
Thank you for quick respons ,I should have made my reqeust more clear
I meant sometime in the future new rdss 2. Have used the snip-it with
some degree of succes ,sometimes it repeats the same race,I'm sure I'm
doing something wrong at times. I'll stick to it until I get it right.
thank you for your time and effort ,you are doing a great job.
have a great day.
