Screenshot button ?

Post by saulob »

Ok, I just read all the readme file... and can't find anything about it...

So, how can I take screenshot from the games I'm playing ?

Is there any button for it ? What format ? And where ?

It will work with all the games ?

Thanks :)

Alt+S creates a screenshot file called scummvmXXXXX.bmp inside the current directory

Sadly, this is not included in the readme, it's only mentioned here:

I have searched through the version PDF 2006/10/29 and 2006/06/07 and did not find it.
So, i'm pretty certain it's not included.

But a nice feature it is ... :P


.... it's also not included in the 'Help' menu, - maybe also good to have it there ? :?:

Thanks for pointing this out, I added it to the README in SVN.

I first heard of the screenshot button from the readme. Maybe it got lost along the way somewhere?
