Fireshot 0.78
Vista, french Firefox 3.5.3 It worked before. Since yesterday it does not do the job anymore. Without modifying the options. I use Fireshot to produce miniature pictures for my digg-like site. It used to be really quick and easy. I set the capture to be 180 by 120 pixels, with an 8 seconds temporisation for flash capture. I had already uploaded 120 miniatures of the kind on my site. And since 2 or 3 days, with the same settings, the capture I obtain is 391 px by 120, with the real capture stuck to the left of the picture and the right part all in white. I have to open it in a picture editor to resize it correctly and take off the white part. Why did it work perfectly before, and now not , all of a sudden ? thank you in advance for any help.

What happen if you set 90x120 ? Does it really multiply? __________________ FireShot Pro Pro Full Webpage Screenshots will be moving to a subscription model soon!

| I just tried with 90x120: I get a 387 x120 picture, with a smaller capture of the site stuck on the left part and all the rest completely white. | ||

Try changing the options to another resize method, then set it back. __________________ FireShot Pro Pro Full Webpage Screenshots will be moving to a subscription model soon!

I tried several settings :
visible page with 10 % gives me 387x73 with the white part on the right complete page with 10 % gives me 387x166 with the white part complete page with no resizing : 712x368 without any white part and back to 180x120 still gives me a 387x120 picture with the white part on the right. (I did not succeed it providing the url of my image in the initial post.) |

Ok. White part can be the reason. What was changed before this bug happening? Can you remember? __________________ FireShot Pro Pro Full Webpage Screenshots will be moving to a subscription model soon!

Well nothing that I can notice in my firefox : the release 3.5.3 is really more than 10 days old, and I did not add any extension to the browser. The only soft I added on my Vista is the new free antivirus by microsoft.
I just installed it In IE8, where I was able to upgrade to 0.79 and it's working fine there : I get what I ask for. Is there a 0.79 release available for Firefox ? |

I'm not sure 0.79 will solve your problem.
The update for Firefox is scheduled but it is in the Mozilla's review queue for 2 weeks and this fact frustrates me a lot.  __________________ FireShot Pro Pro Full Webpage Screenshots will be moving to a subscription model soon!

Possibly locating and deleting fs_fx_settings.ini file (Firefox should be closed before) will solve your problem. __________________ FireShot Pro Pro Full Webpage Screenshots will be moving to a subscription model soon!

Hello again !
I think I found the reason why of the white space. When I choose for editor settings to add the page title to the caption, even is there is no page title available, the picture will let the room to display it. The white space had come back, so I reinstalled the module, and when checking every option, I noticed the title thing. it must be the same with adding the url to the picture. I did not understood perfectly the meaning of this setting, English is not my mother tongue. I thought it was meant to produce an alternative text to the picture, but in fact it adds a text accross the picture. |
