Continuing with the previous thread I posted trying to send poster choices - I have the jpgs in one file and I discovered this great way to display them on my screen: Thumbnail view!!!

It is great.

My question now - how to print the "screen" with these displayed? Or even the list of files?

I press "print screen" with no luck... alt/print screen, ctrl/print screen - nothing seems to want to print screen.

There must be a way... what am I missing?!

Thanks, Roz
 
Bob -

That worked!! Not perfectly the first time - but now I can work with it!!

Thank you so much.

"Print screen" really means "copy screen to the clipboard," but they couldn't fit that on the key.

Its a dinosaur key, all three are!

In the DOS days if you assigned your printer to lpt1 then hitting the Print screen key would print directy to the printer. Pause and break helped with programming errors, now those three just take up space!

Obsolete, vestigual(sp?) remainders are not just an issue with computers. I'm sure if I looked on the floorboard of my car I could find the outline for the screw holes for the foot operated high beam switch that used to be there! And just what does your appendix do anyways? Besides get infected?!
 
Bob,

Since I am a Mac addict and have little experience with PCs (‘cept at the library when I can never remember that there is such a thing as a “right” mouse click), is there any way on a PC that you can create macros to modify function keys?
 
Bill, can't remember how to make macros in Windows. I think Word had/has a macro recorder that works within Word. I've never used it.

The company I used to work for sold a utility called AbbreviateIt that was a windows based macro program. Here is their URL

BTW did you know that with the Mac it used to be if you held down the mouse button for a longish time the "right click" menu would pop up.

Yeah, but I'm generally too impatient for that and when I try the click/hold with the library's PC, it just sits there.
 
Rozmataz: This is the software i have been using for years and years. This is the LAST FREEWARE VERSION! Get it now while you can!

Information:
PrintKey 5.01se (last freeware version) OS: Win95/98/Me/NT/2000 (I have WinXP... works great.)
PrintKey allows printing anything on the screen to the printer. Once loaded, it sits in the task bar. Hit the Print Screen key on your keyboard and the program grabs the current screen, and is ready to manipulate (cut, crop, convert to gray scale, etc) then either print or save to file. Very intuitive, easy to use interface. Low resource consumption.
(Simply click the Print Screen icon to caputure what is on your screen.) Download (384 kB)

There's a screen capture built right into Windows as well, which I use all the time. ALT+(PrintScreen) This takes a snapshot of the screen and puts it in the buffer, which can be pasted into your viewer (control+v)

My favorite viewer is VuePro from www.hamrick.com
