Did I miss something in the manual? Is there an easy way to take a screenshot?

since it a windows program, 'printscreen' should capture it to notepad. you should be able to paste it into your favorite image editor after that.

Right. Other than that? Is there a way for the game to?

Not that I know of. I think you're stuck with the print screen thingie.

I asked the same question not more than a week ago.

Great minds think alike.

I also read and responded (incorrectly) to the other post about grabbing screens. In my experience, <ALT><PrintScreen> only grabbs the WINDOW in focus, not the screen. Just <PrintScreen> alone, grabbs the ENTIRE SCREEN.

I previously stated <CTRL><PrintScvreen> does it, but it actually does nothing at all. And yes, it does place the image on the clipboard.

I think you mean 'printscreen' copies the image to the clipboard, not Notepad.

The windows command is <ALT>-<PRNT-SCRN>, not just <PRNT-SCRN>. Don't think it will work otherwise.
