How to paste a screenshot?

[RSI]

In BeOS I mean

I pressed printscreen and my mouse stopped for a sec, so I assume it's the correct thing to do, but so I downloaded a graphics program (a whopping 47KB), and I don't see how I can paste the screenshot... ctrl-v and alt-v don't do anything and there is no paste in the right click menu...

Anybody out there know?

You sure a 47KB graphics program is capable of copy and paste?

It even has this transparency option thingy and a cpu usage monitor.. it CAN do stuff... but I think it is just severely limited ... I think all you can do is drag images into it I don't know.. or I'm just incompetent :|

try alt-v. Im pretty sure in BeOS alt works like ctrl does.

What's the matter? Can't get Microsoft Paint to work?

Oh I get it...

It automatically creates a bloated (BMP equivalent I guess) pic somewhere.. all I do now is click it and convert to what I want (jpeg, png, whatever - all works automatically, unlike Pbrush)...

Now I cant get onto my ftp and the ICQ client doesn't do sending.. doh :|

you take a floppy... and a brush.

Make sure you have your screen showing what you want.

take that brush and a jar of paste.

cover your screen with it, or at least what you want to cap.

then, stick your floppy onto the screen. if you have a burner, you can stick a CDR to the screen, or CDRW disk if you want.

if this does not work, then i can't help you.

if this does, nothing can help you.

KB, RSI is using BeOS... how the hell would mspaint work???

 

[Mr.IncrediblyBored]

Mday it was a joke.

Apparently not a good one I know what BeOS is.

 

[Mday]

yeah, it was pretty bad... i think it's a bit worse than the one i had.

I thought it was pretty good, Mday is just a little slow.

I just set up BeOS at my cousin's house (P3-450/192MB/CAble).. everything worked perfectly again, and very surprisingly his NICs and cable modem worked flawlessly within 2 seconds of setting them up! I was seriously surprised.
