I used print screen to get my shot and for some reason it was small?  :-?
Im pretty sure there is no button in FS9 to just take snapshots like fsx?

Comments welcome..I tried to get all the traffic I could.

Use FS Screen to take FS9 shots... Just load it up before you start the sim (or whenever you're about to take screenshots) and press the print screen key on the keyboard and it will save all the shots to your desktop in full size... edit them to make them .jpeg files and change the size and you're good to go ;)

Lots of multiple screenshot software around if you care to look. It's all a matter of preference. MW's MultiGrab has always done everything I wanted.

What resolution are you using to run FS9? The Windows default Print Screen feature can only capture shots in the resolution selected from FS9 Display settings.

Oh that must be it.
800x600 or something.
It was the only resolution that would get my 22" monitor to work?  ;D

Downloaded from the MultiGrab site - both the prerequisite and the MGrab.  Though I've created a 'screenshots' folder and tacked it onto the 'grabs' folder in program files, I'm still getting just the single screenshot.  Obviously missing something - as usual.

olderndirt. Run MultiGrab & click the "Start Monitoring" button. Then minimise it before starting FS. MultiGrab will then run in the background from your Taskbar. Take as many shots as you like by pressing the Print Screen key. To see your captures click on the Taskbar icon to restore it.

It really helps to push the 'start monitoring' button - thanks  :).
