Ahh, Tedd... Tedd... Tedd... Tedd... It takes years and years of patient study... no boozing with the boys... you'll have to give up galavanting with the girls... no lusting after lovely loose ladies... Just long, long hours of patient, candlelit study until the early hours... Actually, I've got to admit I know absolutely nothing about eunuchs, in fact, I know even less than that. When your question came through, I just googled "screencapture -ic" :) > PS: I know that this is too simple, but when dealing with my slider, > I just use s = button (_slider) to get the value -- could you be > over-thinking the problem?
