    Hi everybody,
    
    a customer reclaims a bad problem with PrintScreen.
    After issuing 'Print Entire Screen' from the SessMgr the printout
    works fine - but only the half!
    
    It seems that the printout 'forgets' the upper half of the picture
    - with no error message.
    
    Are there perhaps any Sysgen-Parameters responsible for this
    behavior?
    
    The customer has 8MB VS200. The same behavior with my 14MB VS2000.
    
    Any help'd be appreciated.

    Are you sure it isn't just the (brain-dead) scroll bars on the Viewer? 
    Try expanding the window and/or pull the image into Paint or DECwrite
    and I'll bet you'll see the whole thing.
    
    Regards,

    No!                                 
    It has nothing to do with the Viewer and it is not a specific
    layered product problem as with Paint or DECwrite.
    It's just a simple 'PrintScreen' from the Session Manager.
