Screensave
Post by Kipper on Aug 22nd, 2014, 09:24am

Hi all,

I would like to be able to action a Screensave command which can grab the screen from any part of the display, using supplied coordinates, when the coordinates are outside of the input focus of any BBC Basic window. This is in order to support work on software that assists users with physical disability. Is it possible to do this?

I imagine it is easier to issue a Print Entire Screen command but wondered if there is a way to narrow the coordinates to user specification?

Thanks!

Kipper

Take a look at the wiki page

After method three you will find what you need.
Just tried it.
