Snapshot problems

I forgot to mention another cool feature of using "import snapshot from 
<object>":  because it uses the engine's native object rendering scheme 
rather than merely clipping the display buffer, it renders with 
transparent areas as transparent.

For example, if you import a snapshot of a group of objects, any areas 
between the objects are transparent in the resulting image.

Many cool things can be done with this new option, and it's so much 
simpler to use than keeping track of rects....
