Re[4]: "usable" screen captures

[Dennis Crane <techwr-l -at- cognitiveforce -dot- com> (Indigo Byte Systems)]

Hello Leonard,

LCP> unison. Granted callouts are mapped (by lines) to particular points in
LCP> an image, how does one anchor the graphic end of the line to the graphic
LCP> when the graphic is swapped?

The thing is that our tool is not screen capturing utility but a
help authoring tool. So, annotated screenshots are considered as parts
of a software manual and they are stored together with meta data:
sizes, positions of controls, callout maps, label texts, descriptions
and etc.
When a user needs to update the screen s\he replaces just the
underlying bitmap picture while all meta data are kept.


Sincerely yours,
Dennis Y. Crane
