Title: [Suggestion] Snapshot sound when press F4
Post by: xmRipper on April 18, 2009, 10:59:39 am
When you press F4 for capture screen, there is no message or snapshot sound.
That would be good if it plays snapshot sound.

I agree, as it would help you know if it actually took the screenshot.

My folder is loaded with duplicates because I don't know if I hit the correct key.

Sounds good. F12'ed.

I'm not sure if everyone would like to hear sound, maybe make some notification saying "Snapshot taken." or so. Of course this sentence shouldn't be shown on the screenshot.

A message saying "Screenshot saved as foo.bmp" in the console would also be very welcome.

@Tomaz but the text shouldnt be displayed in the snapshot
maybe just a sound (but not an annoying one and an option to disable it)

It makes perfect sense really. I'm totally up for this, Toumaz' suggestion as well.

a message would do just fine. ''screenshot saved''

Either of those ideas would be wonderful.

It wouldn't have to be in the screenshot. It would only show up on console after the screenshot was taken.

What about a sound completely editable like a .wav? It sounds good :)

how about a simple 'screen captured' message on the bottom for like 1 and a half seconds? this way if your sound is off you can know as well :D

-edit : wow ops someone already mentioned my idea :P

F12 for the sound and the text, when both could be disabled :)

Ripper, could you please add a poll?

No, it doesn't need. Everybody F12'ed.
I'm sure, this will be added in 1.5.1.

It actually does make a sound...if you listen to it without any other noise in the background, although its too soft so you can barely hear it.

Maybe you hear your F4 key being tapped. ;)

/Sfx/snapshot.wav

Already a sound, but MM forgot it in the original installer. Download the installer again and it will be there, or create your own snapshot.wav.

I know there is already a sound but it's only playing while ActionSnap.

I mean, there is no sound without actionsnap.

You mean, you want a sound for when you don't use ActionSnap?
Why? Sorry but I don't get it.

YES F4 is not action snap. there is no Sound and it should be, or text

Oh! Sorry my mistake! :)
Yes, I agree with that. There should be a sound for the normal screenshot.
