[clap] OK here's something I just discovered. If like me you like to take lots of snaps with the camera tool (often several equations I've produced in word:( ) but you get a bit tired of selecting the option to take the snap over and over again, you can set the right click to take the snap in the settings. Change the setting for right click in the studio settings to camera, set the delay for, say 2 seconds, then press and hold the right button down. I can't understand why I hadn't realised what this meant before:eek:

Dave
P.S. still wish we could take snaps with the spotlight tool like we did in Active1;)

You will be able to in version 3 - AP anyway - not sure about AS as I don't use it.

Dave - you still CAN take snapshots with the spotlight tool. Set the right click as you've described - I set mine for 1 sec. Turn on the spotlight. When you get to the place you want to snapshot, click and HOLD the right button. The snapshot springs into action!! +wave+

As Sarah indicates, this is back in v3 Primary and also v3 Studio.

The snap taken is automatically defined by the position and size of the Spotlight.
