Print Screen?

[LaZ3R]

Any possible way I can make turing use the print screen button so it copies the picture of the entire screen a user is looking at while the program is running? I've tried a few different ways but none are working. Any ideas or helpful suggestions would be appriciated .

Turing can only take a picture of it's own screen. It is imposable to make turing take a picture of the hole screen with out taping in to 3rd party programs or langues.

I thought so , Any idea on how I could go on about "taping into 3rd party programs of languages" by using turing at the same time?

Well you just need a program that takes a pic of the screen and saves it as a file when ran and then call it threw the turing system comands (Sys.Exec).

You could either find a program that allready dose this or make your own in a program langue that has access to the nessray API to do it.

Then to use it in turing you just load the file.

well another way to do this is to manually take a screen shot isong the print screen button (norammly located above the insert button)
then opening MS paint (yes paint) and pasting the image onto the paint and saving it as u want...
however i dont think u could use turing to automatically do this

sorry for the double post but u could use:
var screenShot:int:=Pic.New(0,0,maxx,maxy)
Pic.Save (screenShot,"filename.bmp")

You could've "edited" your post. It was near enough to your last one that I don't think anyone would have missed it.

Anyways, that'll only take a "screenshot" of Turing's window (not including the borders, buttons, etc, just inside the draw window). I believe he wants something similar to print screen. Try AviScreen classic, it takes pics and videos: http://www.bobyte.com/AviScreen/index.asp

Don't know if it can be run from command line, though. Has to be installed so :S
