palette.
8. Choose Palette from the Options menu.
Type 236 in the colors box. Select the Frame button to set a
palette from the current frame. If you want to set a palette
from a sequence of frames select the Sequence button and
then click on the button again (the button changes to Stop
Video). TV Snap generates a palette from the frames that
have been played.
9. Choose Snap New from the File menu or double-click on the
Live Window. The snapped image is displayed in an Image
window entitled ‘Image 1’ as a raw 8-bit RGB image. Save
the image as a BMP file using the Save As command from the
File menu.
10. To save an area of the image, move the cursor over the Image
window—the pointer changes to a cross. Click and drag the
cursor to define an area, and then choose Snap Region from
the File menu. The snapped area is displayed in a separate
untitled Image window which can be saved using the Save As
command. Alternatively, when you have selected an area
using the marquee, you can save the area directly to disk by
choosing the Save Region command from the File menu.
