10.1.2 Automatic screen-shots

You can save screen-shots from a Waveview window at regular
intervals. These can be saved to a file or used as input files for another

program. The Waveview window does not have to be visible for a
screen-shot to be taken; you can minimize it

1. Click the arrow beside the Print icon

to display a

drop-down menu.

2. Choose Auto-screenshot… and tick Enable Auto-Screenshot.

3. Set the time interval between screen-shots in the two boxes

beneath. Unlike Auto-Print, a screen-shot will be taken at this
interval throughout the day.

4. Enter a file name for the screen-shot in Save to File. If you also

want Scream! to run a command using this file as input, enter it
in the Execute Command box. Screen-shots are saved in PNG

format so, under Windows, you should add .png to the end of
the file-name.

5. Ticking Force Size, and filling in an image width and height in

the two boxes that appear, forces the Waveview window to have
the size that you specified. Every image will also have this size.

Whilst Force Size is active, you cannot resize the window.
However, you can still obscure it with other windows, or move

it partially off the screen.
