Not sure if it is intended, but if you play games in windowed mode, the screenshot of the quicksave point seems to capture my entire desktop/obscured windows. Some of the quicksave files I have are like low-frame-rate animations of youtubers reacting to things over the course of hours.
edit: It's amusing that the amazing functionality of this software has revolutionized the way people (even long-time fans) approach their internal risk/time system regarding saves and some of the reasons people give for continuing to hard save are enlightening - the dominant theme I see is fear and overcautiousness over such a trivial thing. Like, the worst thing that could happen is you lose your progress in a video game level...
(I think I continue to do occasional hard saves at memorable points for dumb reasons, like giving saves titles, most of which I never return to load anyway)

Yeah no can do on that front - the screengrab function is based on preferably a full screen, 100% dpi scaled desktop - cos it was turning into a nightmare trying to do any other method. Of course, if I was a better coder.... :laff: ;) In fact, if there are any solutions out there to dynamically determine the resolution, win mode, gametype T1 / T2 etc, that the game is running in, then PM me and I may consider updating it. At the moment I'm keeping it simple (for me at least!)
