Snapshot of screen

[Peter W A Wood]

Have you tried pressing the return (or enter) key after dragging out the rectangle? That worked for me with 6.5.1 OS X 7.

Though once you've dragged out the rectangle, it just disappears. This is a little odd as it gives the impression that the area of the screen has not been selected. It is re-inforced by the fact that the cross-hair cursor is still displayed, though you can't select a new area of the screening by dragging a new rectangle.
