Subject:Re: "Torn screen" graphics -- which tool to use? From:"Wilcox, John (WWC, Contractor)" <wilcoxj -at- WDNI -dot- COM> Date:Sun, 23 Nov 1997 22:51:00 -0800

From: Mark Bicking
We're looking for a tool to allow us to produce the "torn screen" look
in our
documentation and online help. If you have a copy of the 5.5 Frame
Maker
manual, look at their screen samples.
Does anyone know off a tool or add-on that we can purchase to produce
this
convention as painlessly as possible?

I use FullShot, from Inbit (www.inbit.com). You can download a trial
version. And it's worth the price of purchase, which I think now is
like $79.
