The screenshot may then be pasted into an image editor or any application that supports pasting images from the Windows clipboard. This screenshot is saved in an internal memory area of the Windows operating system called the Clipboard and not to a file anywhere on your hard drive. The Print Screen key works in the game the same way it works within Windows (or Vista) it takes a screenshot of everything displayed on your screen.
To take a screenshot of the game screen with the UI, a player has two options: pasting the screenshot from the clipboard, or using the screenshotui slash command to change the default behavior of the screenshot command. The UI are the elements of the game that appear over the main action window for example, chat bubbles, the health and endurance display, the power trays, the chat windows, etc. Screenshots do not contain the user interface (UI) by default. The Page Down key on the keyboard restores the normal behind-the-character perspective and camera distance. One can zoom in or out by either using the Home/End keys on the keyboard or the mouse wheel. To get a screenshot of one's own character, it is common to rotate the camera around the character by either holding down the middle mouse button (or wheel, if it also acts as a button) and moving the mouse, or by holding down the Page Up key and moving the mouse. In addition to saving a screenshot, the screenshot (with the user interface) is copied to the clipboard, where it may be pasted into an image editor such as Paint, Adobe Photoshop, or The Gimp, or into any application that supports images on the clipboard, such as Microsoft Word. Alternatively, a user may type /screenshot on the chat command line in order to create a screenshot. The screenshot is stored in the screenshots subdirectory of the City of Heroes application directory (C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\screenshots, unless City of Heroes was installed to a different directory). This article describes in depth the process of taking screenshots within City of Heroes.īy default, the Print Screen key on a user's keyboard is mapped to create an in-game screenshot, without the user interface (UI).
