Hello all, I'm not sure if my syntax is right, because I get unwanted
results. What I want to do is to export a snapshot from two images as one
image into the clipboard. I am doing this like:
Select empty
Show img "a"
Show img "b"   
            select img "a" and img "b"
            group
            set the name of last group to "grpClipboard"
            export snapshot from grp "grpClipboard" to tClipboardImage as
PNG
            set the clipboarddata["image"] to tClipboardImage
            select empty
        if  exists(group "grpClipboard") then
            select group "grpClipboard"
            ungroup
        end if
hide image "a"
hide image "b"
select empty     
everything works fine, but from now and then another hidden group, named
"test" gets shown und ungrouped, or gets the name "grpClipboard". If it is
not a bug, I assume my syntax with select and group isn't safe. Can anyone
give me a hint, how to make this code more dafe, that always only my wanted
images are selected and grouped / ungrouped?
Thanks Tiemo
