Before the new Lightscreen 2.0 version I could set a time delay when doing an Area Capture. So for example I could capture the contents of a drop-down window that required my mouse clicking open during the capture. That feature seems to have been removed. Or am I missing something? Any suggestions to get the job done?

Delay was moved to the Options tab. Scroll down. It's just before the Clipboard section.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

Fast response John~ I didn't see the right side scroll bar on the Options page. Not so bright of me. I also discovered that the hot key could be used to do what I wanted but a variable delay is more versatile. Thanks!
