Darn. They are not the droids we are looking for.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

Working support tickets can be great to learn about how your customers use the products you create. Recently come into a ton of people that are using Easy Capture Manager (when you press print screen in Windows). The problem is that when they use it, they only capture portions of the screen that they consider useful. Often times this is little more than an error dialog. I want the shot of the whole browser. The URL often has help information in it. Other parts of the screen that users don't care about help me troubleshoot. These screen shots are about as good as no screen shots.

Do these images also come embedded in Word documents?

|
No, but they might as well!

Sounds about as useful as a customer taking a picture of their laptop screen with their mobile phone. From a dodgy angle. In poor lighting conditions.

It could be worse. I get screen 'captures' that are taken with their phone from three feet away. Did I mention they're out of focus and blurred as well? And they're complaining about the position of a button on the screen?

Almost as bad as someone taking a screenshot of part of a log file.

I get that too. We have a diagnostic report (an HTML document) that can be generated via three clicks from anywhere in the application. The document is around 8-10MB of useful information, which translates to about 1,000 printed pages.
I have received a screen capture of the first page.

Is this Easy Capture manager part of your product> When I press Ctrl+PrtScn I get a brief flash and an image of both my screens on the clipboard.

The Snipping Tool has nothing to do with how PrtScn works.

For the umpteenth time a recruiter contacted me for a AEM job opening.
For the impteenth time I had to make the folk noting that, for mere coincidence, AEM is just the name of my current company, and I happily live without knowing a bit of the wonderful ADOBE thingy.

Maybe you should learn it. Apparently there is a demand.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

It is definitely in my list, you know, together with Visual Basic, COBOL, Java and the like.

I had the exact same problem with another TLA (which will remain undefined as it was the name of my company).
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Ever since I worked for the BBC I've been getting offers for porn.

Well, porn usually pays well, so maybe...

But it could prove to be a PITA for him - Depending how much he/her/it is used to it, and his .. uhm.. gender favours.
If he's male maybe a spray can black color will do it

Think yourself lucky. I once got contacted by a recruiter for a job as a car mechanic. I told her I had no experience in that field, she laughed and said "you have a degree in engineering yet know nothing about engines?"
The conversation ended with her thinking I was the dumbass.
|
|
|
|
|
The way I feel about recruiters these days that conversation would have gone on a lot longer and ended with me never, ever having any chance of her trying to place me in any job.
