However, your article was actually refreshing. Instead of bashing the Leopard delay or wishing this or that - your personal time line really underscored how you work and plan. Yes Leopard equates to a sizeable chunk of change - but its delay did not stop you from adjusting your schedule and just "getting on" with it. Good luck with the heli job. My sister would be proud - as her husband has his in pieces in his hanger, but swears one day it will actually fly!! Can we say he does not have a plan "B" :-) I usually read and move on.

Snapz Pro can capture individual windows -- with and without borders, menus, customizable screen areas, and more. Since I don't have time to manually edit every single full-screen shot I could take with the Command-Shift-3 (or 4) shortcut, I use Snapz Pro to take a shot of just what I need.

Use the space bar, and the cursor turns into a camera. If you do command shift 4, select a menu and hit space it will just take a picture of the menu, when you move over the menu. So interface elements can be screen captured with Tiger's built-in screen capture options. So unless the Leopard beta lacks this function, you don't need SnapZ pro to do these pictures. Learn how to use the built-in screen capture facilities of the operating system. Screen capture at least in Tiger can be done on windows with a simple command-shift-4.
