Screenshot mode in mutiple pages scores

• Aug 30, 2014 - 21:27

The screenshot mode implemented in 2.0 is great. However when you use it the guides for selecting region to be copied, always appear on page #1 of score. Not problem if you write a simple song, but it really sucks in a score with 50 pages.
It would be nice if if it could show up on current page.

Thanks for pointing this out - I probably never would have noticed myself, since I use screenshot mode for creating short examples that are under a page to begin with. It's fixed now - the rectangle always appears centered within the current view, unless you had had used it previously in this session and the previous position is also in view.

An extra bonus, maybe a bigger deal for my use case than yours - the right click menu now gives an option to auto-resize to page. So if your score is literally consists of only four measures, the rectangle auto-sizes to the content of those four measures. I implemented this facility as a command line option first for use in my LibreOffice extension, but realized it could be useful in screenshot mode too.
