Apple's FKEY #3 will save as a MacPaint file in 2-color mode. It rotates a standard screen 90 degrees and might give up on a very large screen. Without getting blatantly commercial, I would note that Color SaveScreen (one of four programs that comprise Colorizer from Palomar Software) captures the current screen in 2, 4, 16 or 256-color mode. It will work with any size screen or combination of screens, and also works on pre-Mac II machines. The result is a PICT file, which can be edited by any of the color painting programs out there. (We also supply a program than can print it.) -- Joel West (c/o UCSD) Palomar Software, Inc., P.O.

Of course the standard screen dump (command-shift-3) works on the Mac II BUT only in 1 bit per pixel mode. I've had good success with Colorizer from Palomar Software (Joel West and company). Their package provides a number of useful tools, including screen snapshot and printing FKEYS which work on the Mac II with multibit per pixel. I don't have their number handy but will post it in a day or two. The package is $49 and includes the FKEYs, a CDEV for the control panel which lets you colorize the user interface and more exciting stuff, and a program which lets you edit PICT files and colorize the elements making up the picture for those exciting startup screens. I'm sure I left something out but it looks like a handy tool to have around, especially for those screen snapshots. David Gelphman daveg%slacvm.bitnet@forsythe.stanford.edu

Colorizer is the only program currently available which supports screen dumps of screens with multiple bitplanes. Hope this helps someone. David Gelphman daveg%slacvm.bitnet@forsythe.stanford.edu

Hello. I have a Mac II with a Sigma designs Laserview monitor. Is there a way for me to capture a part of my screen as a graphic file at any time?

Exposure from Preferred Publishers is the premier screen capture utility. It works in color and has extensive sophisticated selection and editing functions. I'm in no way connected with the product, but it sure looked cool in Boston. --scott -- Scott Truesdell
