I found a work around. Not really my original idea, but someone else said do a print screen.. That kinda works, but the image is kind of low res by the time you get it into "
your favorite image editing program". Plus you get all the other crap on your screen, plus, the image will probably be smaller than it really is in ANIME STUDIO, plus it kinda sux.
This works in Paint Shop Pro 8 anyway. (Can't afford Photoshop). PSP 8 has a Screen Capture system of its own. You set it up simply by selecting the area, Full Screen, Window, Object, etc. I chose Object which works for that file preview window. Window didn't seem to work. And choose a hot key, F11 for example. It's simple.
So You just select Start from File>Import>Screen Capture>Start in PSP8, then do a CTRL-C which minimizes PSP8, and then have file>preview already up in ANIME STUDIO. Click on that window, and hit the hot key.
Then you can paste it into PSP8 as a new image. Actually I got the border and title bar, so I selected just the content and pasted that as a new image in the program, and I'm convinced it's the exact same result you'd get if you had the 'Copy to Clipboard' option off the file>preview screen in Anime Studio. I checked Image Information and it was off by 1 pixel in size. I'm sure it will import right back in to Anime Studio once I save it as a png file. If you're doing tutorial 4.4, then you know why it's important to be the same size.
If not using PSP8, then I'm sure there's similar functionality in whatever "
your favorite image editing program" is.
I hope this helps somebody. I know I feel better.
Especially when the document is titled "Anime Studio Debut Users Manual"
