[comp.sys.mac.system] Screen dumps

dr2q+@andrew.cmu.edu (David Michael Ravetti) (11/23/90)

I would like to get copies of screen images to document an OMNIS
database I am working on, but apple-shift-3 does not seem to work for
me.  I have tried this on both a Mac II (5Mb) and a Mac SE (4Mb).  I
have also tried it with and without multifinder running.  Both systems
are running system 6.0.3.
The Mac SE (2.5Mb) which I am typing this from (I don't have OMNIS on
this one) does screen dumps even under multifinder while running a few
applications.  It is also on 6.0.3.

What could be the problem?  The only other difference I see between the
systems is that the two that don't work are on Appletalk.  BTW, when I
do try apple-shift-3, the computers will beep once and not make any disk
access noises.  Also, there is plenty of memory in both hard drives and
the systems are not very large, so there is plenty of RAM available.

Please e-mail any recommendations to dr2q@andrew.cmu.edu as I do not
read this board too often.  Thanks in advance.
