efpek Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Hello All Is there a possibility to enable always save as bmp file? Now when i make a screenshot and clik ctrl+s I have got window with png type and must always change it to bmp manually. I must make about 80 screens daily and save as 8bit bmp file.

Sarkut Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 This shows a work-around. It's not foolproof, but can save a few mouse-clicks. Make the original file a .bmp rather than a .jpg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0(-.-)0 Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Why do you want to save as BMP? PNG is lossless compression. Much smaller and just as effective. Quote - Any thoughts? - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efpek Posted April 14, 2010 Author Share Posted April 14, 2010 (edited) Unfortunately this solution works only if we do not make a new file from clipboard. BMP is only supported format of graphics when making HLP files from rtf and hpj. Edited April 14, 2010 by efpek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarkut Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 (edited) Actually this should work. With the image loaded in the clipboard, open Paint.NET with the special shortcut and press Ctrl V, then Ctrl+Shift+S to Save As, name the file. It's still not as convenient as being able to configure bitmap as the default save type, which isn't possible with Paint.NET. ====================================================== So, technically this does work, but from a practical perspective, probably not worth the trouble.
