Yes, I have had issues with some screen capture programs not picking up my docks. I think a version of Snagit I tried a while back had this problem. I don't have a solution for you other than try different screen cap software. Prt Sc always works, but my screen cap proggie of choice is Hoversnap. Free and easy, Link

I tried HoverSnap in the past, and couldn't get it to work. Decided I'd try it again, and it's working.
Koasati wonders what he did wrong before ......

I just use "print screen" and paste into PSP 8. Never had a problem with that.

Me too Island Dog...... but some folks want a 'program' to make captures, and HoverSnap is the only one I've tried that will capture alpha blended images. It's simply using the Prt Scr feature, with a few added features.

I use print screen...Then paste into Infranview or Paint or PhotoStudio...Any of them will capture the shot.

Regardless of what I use... I always open the shot in paint and save it as a jpeg format, it drastically compresses the size..Usually by 1/3..

I, too, use Prt Sc. But I like being able to take multiple shots without having to paste after each one. So I fall back on Hoversnap since it is so lite, easy to use, and just saves the shots for me where I want. That is really the only advantage I see to it.

I've used the Objectdock docklet called Capture Link by DockZone and it's worked as well as I have needed.

PrtScn will capture your whole screen

Ctrl+PrtScn will capture just the window or dock in focus

Alt+V will paste the screen capture in just about every graphics program

Alt+PrtScrn will also capture just the current active app also.

I like to use Irfanview for doing most screenies, especially in-game, where it takes continuous shots and saves them to a designated folder (choice of formats)...It doesn't capture the alpha blended objects though.

kjay, does your keyboard come with a "F-Lock" key (usually upper-right), if so, make sure that is toggled ON, then try the CTRL+PrtScrn, and immediately go to MS Paint, or whatever your graphics program is, and paste it.
