Question / Help I don't understand how sub region works

[ITPalg]

I was trying to capture the Firefall launcher with inner/full window software mode but it only wants to show the top line of "Firefall Closed Beta: Stage 1" and not even the entire launcher.

I looked at the sub region part and I don't understand how to use it. The launcher window has the overlay on it but I have no idea how to select a region.

You drag the white box around and resize it over the area you want to capture.

What white box?

If I try to drag around on a portion of the window it moves the window around.

When you select a screen region, it should look something like this: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=3401&p=20681#p20681

Ok well I guess the launcher just refuses to be captured in its entirety.
It only shows the left side where the patch notes are and doesn't show the right side of it.

I normally wouldnt advise this, but you could make a seperate scene (PLEASE DO IT IN A SEPERATE SCENE) and use a monitor capture to "grab the launcher". you can also use a sub region there to only show the launcher. now after you clicked on launch you just switch to a second scene with game/window capture for your game. Remember, you can set a Hotkey for each scene.

(Monitor capture is not that great under Win7, especiall with Aero activated, but it should work)
