Help on export snapshot

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Paul,

This will work:

on mouseUp
      put "~/desktop/test.png" into myFile
      if there is a file myFile then delete file myFile
      set the filetype to "????PNGf"
      export snapshot from rect (the rect of this stack) to file  
myFile as PNG
end mouseUp

Best regards,
