This is gonna be a smaller project, it shouldn't take so long. It's a screen capture program.
Customisable, and [hopefully] with the ability to edit the screen capture before you save it. (Example: remove frames, crop, etc)

I'm also trying to figure out how I can set it to clip a certain part of the screen, as opposed to doing the whole thing. I've already got a rough idea though. smile.gif

I'll post up a demo when it gets a little bit better, it doesn't do a lot at the minute. Just capture the whole screen from when you click a button until you click another, and you can only save it to .tiff

Sounds like a good old fashion distraction project from Snippet manager. Classic gabehabe fashion... distraction extraordinaire! wink2.gif

haha, very true~

I've got a basic form set up to show the individual frames (click them in a list box)

Next will be frame rate, etc.

I'll upload a basic version now, note that a lot of it doesn't do anything.

Wait a sec, I'll add a little functionality and post it here.

The point was just so I could do a screen capture of the snippet manager. smile.gif

EDIT:
Here it is! Note that the textboxes don't actually do anything yet, but I will get that done. smile.gif
Attached File  Screen.zip ( 6.18k ) Number of downloads: 6


OH YEAH!
I forgot, when you save it, it will save to "C:\\test.tiff" since that's where I saved it to when I was just figuring out how to save an animated tiff. sleep.gif

ANOTHER EDIT:
Beware, I just ran it and it started to get real slow when the List of Bitmaps got big. And everything went slow. Damn. Need to make it sleep a little longer, methinks.

Made an update to this the other day. I've enabled the ability to record just a part of the screen, by moving an empty (mostly opaque) form over the area to record (the form disappears when you start recording. I've also greatly improved the stability/speed of it.

I'll get this one finished this week, I've kinda taken a break from bigger projects to learn new things, but I'm back on track now. (I've also been working on a lot of tutorials lately, in case you haven't noticed) wink2.gif

The same goes for the snippet manager, I'm considering a 100% rewrite in C++ with wxWidgets so you Linux users can use it too. smile.gif

I know of it, I read an article about it in a Linux magizine. But the point of using Mono was to try Gabehabes project, not to get something to fulfil my recording needs.

The fact that you have a Windows icon under your name suggests that you can use it anyway. smile.gif

I'm gonna get this finished soon~ It'll do for a portfolio. All I really need is to minimise it to the tray and show a little bubble of text.

I won't do the tiff editing yet, but it'll do for now. smile.gif
