Waveform display screen capture command
Have a command (or better, keyboard shortcut) to snapshot the current waveform display. Currently we have to use WINDOWS screencapture

"Would it be possible to add a kind of screenshot feature for Logic 2 window? Maybe just a capture itself and channels name. Thank you."

"Easy snapshoting, for use in a report. Ideally the snapshot is a simple picture but with relevant metadata, like time of capture o.s.o., can be as simple as adding this info in the file name."

"I use WINDOWS snip and paste into photoshop, and then invert to attain black waveforms on white… much easier to deal with in documentation.
(No need to mimic the old Tektronix and HP displays)
then export to PNG for use in documentation and (lab) notebook notes/PDFs.
With capturing MANY variations/experiments, it would be so much easier and quicker to have a keyboard shortcut to screenshot and go to the next capture."

Thanks for getting this posted. I hope you don't mind that I changed the title so that I can easily pull this up and search it when needed. I've been meaning to start tracking user interest in this.
We've actually thought about getting native support for an in-app screenshot tool. Long story short, we couldn't justify adding that in, especially when native OS tools can do the same job. Regardless, we've been receiving requests from other users for adding in-app screenshot support, so it's great that you got this posted.
Mark, our CTO and software lead, describes how we worked around this in the forum post below:

Can you let me know any specific limitations you have when using the OS native screenshot tools, and why you'd prefer using an in-app one? Simplicity is certainly what comes to mind for me, but I'm wondering if you had other thoughts.
