Three bugs: Fireshot Not Capturing, not naming properl, not prepending zeros to %n

Question

Fireshot Pro for Firefox v.0.98.95.2
Windows 10
Pale Moon 28.0.1 64 bit

Steps to recreate bug:
Click on Fireshot icon and "hint" bar appears but no capture cursor.

2nd bug:
Opening a file in the editor works, uploading works, but the specified naming template is not applied.

3rd bug:
"Pad number" digits not being added.

Accepted Answer

Hello, does it happen to any URL? Can you please send me a screenshot of the Options page (where you setup the naming and padding). It should look like: https://easycaptures.com/fs/uploaded/1290/9083851601.png

Answer

As an additional test, please set it to %n-%y-%m-%d. Filename truncation (when you save to a long path) can be the cause of this incorrect padding.

Answer

Thank you. Can you please send an example of what you're getting, and what you're expecting to get?

Answer

Ah, I see. For padding, please change the value from 2 to 4. Also, 'Capture Selection / Element and...' is still not working. Does it happen to any web page? If you open the error console for this page, can you see any errors relative to FireShot?

Answer

Something along the lines of 'Set %n to XX digits.' would be more descriptive of the behavior. Agreed, thanks. Just to avoid confusion, can you please remove FireShot, restart Pale Moon and perform a fresh install from this link: https://addons.palemoon.org/addon/take-page-screenshot ?

Answer

Ah, are you using zoom in the browser? Does it look large in the Editor too?

Answer

I suspect I know the reason - seems like you're having a system zoom, 150% due to high screen resolution, right?

Answer

Yes, this can be done automatically: https://easycaptures.com/fs/uploaded/1291/1490412762.png And the upload window is so tall that I can't get to the upload button unless I hide my taskbar. I have that same issue with Photoshop, so I have a keyboard shortcut to hide the taskbar. For the current version, I can recommend you to check this option in the left bottom corner: https://easycaptures.com/fs/uploaded/1291/2386417933.png

Answer

Thank you very much. I had to set a 'custom %' of 100% to make this work. That got around the resolution issue Wow! 8)
