lavgunner Posted April 7, 2002 Share Posted April 7, 2002 Does anyone know how to save pictures from CM. Example, I am trying to teach my children, (YES WE ARE A CM FAMILY,we enjoy discussing tactics at the dinner table), about hull down postions. I think if they had a picture of a Tiger turret exposed behind a terrain feature, they would understand. THANKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Dorosh Posted April 7, 2002 Share Posted April 7, 2002 On a PC - hit Print Scrn, then Esc out of CM, go into PAINT or some other program that allows you to edit bitmaps, select PASTE from one of the menus, and voila! Save the file, remembering what you called it and where you saved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illo Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 They are not saved until you save them in paint program. In CM Print Scrn will save image to your computers memory(clip board) If you after that start a paint program (PSP, Adobe Photoshop, MS Paint) You just choose "paste" from "edit" menu. Now you screenshot appears and you can save it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 On a Mac it is Command-Shift-3 and the picture is automatically saved on the root level of your hard drive. Command-Shift-4 allows you to outline a particular part of your screen to be selected before the snapshot is taken. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
