Taking a screenshot in HWA?

[Nifflas]

Again, it's possible with the normal screen capture object. Only "Capture Frame" doesn't work in HWA. If you select an area (you can retrieve the window position and client area using the Window Control Object) and use "capture screen" action, you should be able to do it.

The problem is - It would capture the area in front of the window, too. I'm not sure if the frame area does that, too. It's annoying anyway.

Isn't there a way to 'push' the App window to the front?

[Looki]

There is, but that might be very annoying and unwanted by the user.

Move it back! :grin:

They won't even know what hit 'em.

I guess that's true. It's never a problem if capturing the screen is an action performed by the player (because then the application would have focus for sure), but I guess it can be a problem if the application does it on it's own behalf. Besides, if HWA is out soon as well as the new extension SDK for it, it only needs to be used as a temporary workaround.
