Screen capture for ipad failed?

Hi,

I tried to do a screen capture for iPad application in the simulator and I got a 1024x768 size image but 3/4 of it is white, the 1/4 is the actual screen I’m trying to capture. Is this a bug or did I do something wrong.

The code is display.save( display.currentStage, "something.jpg", baseDir)

The config.lua is

application =  
{  
 content =  
 {  
 width = 768,  
 height = 1024,  
 },  
}

I too am having issues with something very similar to this, one thing you might try (from reading on another post) is removing the width/height from the config.lua file. These I guess are only needed if you are developing a cross-device app, and not needed if you are specifically coding for the iPad. [import]uid: 10747 topic_id: 3694 reply_id: 11378[/import]

I cant get it to work in landscape, it chops off the picture as if its only taking in portrait [import]uid: 11459 topic_id: 3694 reply_id: 26194[/import]

I have the same problem as maxbarrow… its in landscape, but it chops off the picture as if its taking it in portrait.
I tested it on ipad and ipod devices… and the problem only seems to be on ipad.
Is it a bug? [import]uid: 13632 topic_id: 3694 reply_id: 55682[/import]

oh ok… it’s already in the bug list:

Note: Doing a screen capture in landscape mode incorrectly captures the screen as a portrait. [case #928]

would be nice to have this fixed [import]uid: 13632 topic_id: 3694 reply_id: 55707[/import]
