914.0. "pictures in DECmcc documentation" by HLDG00::GOES () Mon Apr 15 1991 07:08

Question for the DECmcc documentation team.

Maybe it is a little strange question but .....


We developed an access module and we're now ready to write an user manual.

We intended to include examples of the screen layout in our manual.

But ..... :

    We want to take a capture of the screen with the operations 
    drop down menu displayed. If we select the operations menu
    and we try to select the "capture portion of screen" (from
    the session manager's "print screen") the operations menu
    from DECmcc is no longer displayed so we're not able to 
    make a capture of the screen with dropdown-menus displayed.

    In the DECmcc documentation we see (for example at page 3-25
    of the use_v11-manual) that it is possible to make captures 
    of the screen with drop-down menus selected.

    Question : How do you make these captures ???

    Try using UTOX - see CLOSET::UTOX.

    The doc team has not been using screen captures; the output
    quality of the captures wasn't very good.  Our screens were drawn
    by our art department, and we added the application-specific info
    to them.  I guess we've been doing it the old-fashioned way.  We've
    experimented with UTOX but it's a lot of trouble when you're using
    Interleaf.
