Hi @oi1 – thanks for reaching out! I wasn’t able to reproduce your issue. Would you mind PMing me a link to your editor so I can take a look?

This stopped capturing images for me 6 days ago. Anyone experiencing the same issue?

jeffmccutcheon · 2022-06-12T16:08:18.866Z

yes, I had the white bar issue as well. It has to do with responsive pages/elements. Try setting page and element to fixed width.

Hi Alex, photo capture failed a week ago (even on the demo page) in chrome and firefox for me.

That’s great!

Hi thank you for your plugin
My screenshot ratio is broken when I capture it.
My image is setting as Zoom.

Hi Alex,
I’m getting some weird results in my screenshots. It looks like it’s not working for several types of content:

Multiline inputs (textareas). What I see is just the first line of the text in the textarea, cut off and not wrapping.
Images: The images on the page are in reusable elements, not sure if that helps to debug
Rendered styles: there are some rendered CSS styles that look like they get reset in the screenshot.
General color mismatches
Iconify icons not showing up

The first image below is what the page looks like, and the second is the screenshot. As you can see there is a huge difference.

Do you know what’s happening? It’s really not useable in this state.

@oli1 @adambailey @jeffmccutcheon thanks for reaching out and sharing the issues about the images not capturing properly! This was due to some changes to the Bubble engine (for CORS issues). I’ve updated the proxy to the compatible with the new Bubble changes and it should be working properly now. Please take a look at the demo page and let me know if you notice otherwise!

Thanks Alex, will do!

Not working well for Element IDs… capturing the wrong sectio of the page (its a group within a floating group)

darren.james7518 · 2023-01-28T23:42:50.218Z

No better than free plugins because it fails to capture shadow or bevel. See on left the original and on right the capture. No good

Does your plugin still not capture iframe content?

Andy_i · 2023-03-27T14:14:29.209Z

Hey @alex4 is it possible to add a “make generated img private” option in the workflow action?

This would save us having to add extra workflows to grab the base 64, then run the base 64 through a file upload api to make it private, and then delete the original img.

Thanks dude!

Andy_i · 2023-03-27T14:29:19.767Z

@jeffmccutcheon thank you for the suggestion, solved my image issues!

jeffmccutcheon · 2023-03-27T15:01:54.969Z

you’re welcome although somehow my issues appear and disappear at random even after moving to base64.

Hi, will this screenshot a video pane?

Hi @alex4, I use your Chart Plugin and now got your Screenshot plugin as it is in your demo is able to screenshot your charts, which the other plugins don’t seem to be able to do. However, I have an issue: if I use your chart with custom point images, the chart does not show up. (I use 0.5 point scale for these images) . I am trying to capture the screenshot of an element here.

It works when I avoid using custom point markers, but this is not how audiograms are represented, so has limited benefit. (This is also why I paid you some private fees to make these possible and also bring Span gaps to your chart plugin).

You’ll notice the chart is overlayed on top of some images and groups in a fixed group. Please help as this functionality is critical in finishing my app feature.

christo1 · 2023-06-15T02:33:15.572Z

@alex4 Any Update?

alex4 · 2023-06-15T02:55:19.953Z

Hi @christo1 apologies for a few day delay here, gearing up for my wedding next week!

Screenshot plugin as it is in your demo is able to screenshot your charts, which the other plugins don’t seem to be able to do.

Yes, the TechBlocks screenshot plugin uses a proxy to circumvent DNS issues, which is why it is able to take screenshots of assets hosted without cross-origin sharing!

However, I have an issue: if I use your chart with custom point images, the chart does not show up. (I use 0.5 point scale for these images) . I am trying to capture the screenshot of an element here.

Hmm… strange. I can look into this tomorrow–can you PM me a link to your editor?

Thanks!
Alex
