Hi Daniel,

thanks for this. While trying to screen capture an Neon animation, I tried to modify this, but I am struggling with handling the events.

With the timer I want to set the interval, I will give for Neon to render in each frame.

What I am trying to do is, first capture the image and then move to the next location.

How would I do this?

Thanks, p

So this was driving me crazy, since I could not find my mistake.

Finally it is solved, apart from fully understanding the "why", but for the protocol:

The different methods suggested in your component produced various results:

- Dim view As rhino.Display.RhinoView = RhinoDocument.Views.ActiveView
      Dim image As bitmap = view.CaptureToBitmap(New size(W, H), False, False, False)
      image.Save(FName)

will for some reason  not output the actual view at the time but have a stage rendered earlier (???)

using

- rhino.RhinoApp.RunScript("-ViewCaptureToFile " & FName , True)

will cause Neon to re-render the image before saving it (like "-print" does)

- rhino.RhinoApp.RunScript("-ScreenCaptureToFile " & FName, True)

saves the screen-shot at the current state (what I wanted to do)

Maybe someone can still enlighten me on the why?

Best, p
