> I need your help. I need to create a figure where I have 3 cascading

> cascade them before capturing).
We use a program called Collage Complete for Windows to do our captures.
It allows you to set a "timer" when you start a capture. In other words,
you press the hot keys to start the capture, then have 5 or 10 seconds
(whatever you set) to open the cascading windows or menus. It's a neat
little program that works well (and no, I don't work for the company).
If I understand your problem correctly, I think it would do what you
need.
