Another Export Snapshot Problem

Hi,

I don't have access to all of those posts as I'm working away at the  
moment. I have two main problems:

1.  The export snapshot command leaks memory like it's going out of  
fashion.

2.  The export snapshot when used in the context of a rectangle still  
leaks memory but not as badly as the other form, however I can't seem  
to get the correct rectangle coordinates for the portion of the  
window I want to dump.

 From looking at the posts you mention (the ones I can access), I  
found the following:

> on mouseUp
>   put the loc of stack "printstack" into altloc
>   set the left of stack "printstack" to 2500  --off screen
>   put the windowid of stack "PrintStack" into tWinID
>   put "0,0,"& the width of stack "printstack" & comma & the height  
> of stack "printstack" into trect
>   set the rect of the templateimage to trect
>   create invisible image imgname
>   export snapshot from rect trect of window tWinID to pictvar as JPEG
>   put pictvar into image imgname of this stack
>   SHOW img imgname of this stack
>   ## optional, but looks better ;-)
>   set the loc of stack "printstack" to altloc
> end mouseUp

Is this the code you mean? From looking at it, I assume that it too  
will leak memory?

All the Best
Dave
