 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

Hi Quick question -- I am using the CMM2 >> VGA to HDMI and HDMI >> USB to capture the screen via OBS. I am making walkthroughs for teachers using screen grabs at various stages. At present the screen is black with white / context colour coded text (in the editor). Is there any way to make the editor white with black text so that the screen grabs work better when printed in B&W (ie not a wall of black). Even a hacky way (Poke??) would be fine as this is just for screen grabbing not production use. Cheers Nim Entropy is not what it used to be |

Lovely! I think I've asked three questions that have been essentially "RTFM" --> not a complaint --> more a nod to the fact that I should just RTFM first. I wonder, if after 30+ years of pressing F1 or Googling I've become deskilled in RTFM? A lesson for my students I think. @matherp --> thank you. I'm learning (slowly) but defo learning.

Remember you can also use OPTION EDIT FONT to change the font. So play with video modes, (OPTION DEFAULT MODE) and fonts to find the best combination for your purpose. |

don't beat yourself up about this, it is an evolution in how help/info is communicated. My inventory system has all the datasheets for the parts just a link away, I can find a part and then get the details in moments. Years ago you might have spent days trawling various libraries to find a piece of info, now google will provide it in a few minutes - why minutes not seconds? because google is an ad-flinger when all said and done and you have to trawl through half a page of garbage to find the gems among the grit. |

It's an amazing (virtual) world we live in. 50 years ago, I said, "I don't want to go to the library, I want the library to come to me", but I never imagined that it could happen to this degree. It never ceases to amaze me. I can sit in my chair in semi-rural Nova Scotia, turn my head and see this:  Right now--I call it La-Z-Boy Photography (TM). Then turn back to my laptop, ask a question, and shortly get an answer maybe from Great Britain or Australia or Brazil or the U.S., and get on with coding. RTFM? I guess that's a possibility.
