A while ago I asked about import -frame not working any more: Akkana Peck writes: > [email protected] writes: > > > import -frame > > > > Try > > > > import -screen -frame screen.png > > Thanks! It works with -screen (both 6.4.5 and 6.5.3-10). duc.sequere.aut.de.via's workaround is sometimes working for me, but not consistently. Sometimes it shows portions of the window as black (as though they'd been covered with a menu or another window, but they weren't), but I can't reproduce that reliably. But the other problem is that if I import to png, as in the example above, I often end up with a png that includes a layer offset, and some problems have trouble dealing with that. If I load it in gimp, I get a canvas the right size containing a layer that's offset so I can't see all of it. "Fit canvas to layers" cures the problem -- but I never used to need that extra step to use my PNG screenshots from imagemagick. ...Akkana
