maybe we could get an easy "screenshot mode" into plasmoidviewer? So that it - hides the background - uses correct size - saves it with a standardized name Kickoff exposes another problem: some applets will need KWin help. Taking the screenshot without a background won't work for them, though the background hardly matters if we get the area around as translucent. - Martin ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
