Print Play List?
 
Is there anyway that the play list can be printed?
It would be handy to have a printed copy of my play lists for reference.
Is there anyway to print it? I can't find a way but I'm hoping maybe one of you Gurus can.
Thanks

There is no current way to print the playlist. The file is not in any format that can be organized to print.

If you wanted it bad enough doing a printscreen works. If the list exceeded the window size a couple of shots or more would be necessary. Could be saved and printed later.

I've tried using "PrintScrn" several times & it never worked with Hoster for me. Is there some special way of doing it?

You need to have a print screen program installed. That's what the "SysRq" means on the print screen key.

There are several freebies on the internet. Just search FREE PRINT KEY 2000.

I've heard Print Key is a good one.

Hope this helps to at least get you by.

Thanks for the info. There are a couple programs out there.

I've never used any kind of special program with mine. Just click print screen and then open "paint" (part of Windows), select edit and select paste. You can also paste in Word and I imagine other programs you might already own as well.

Sounds like it would be a lot simpler for you if you would install print key. Then is is simply a matter of cropping the portion you want, making any other changes (size, resolution, etc) and saving it. Great for saving pictures.Not necessary to open any other programs

Perhaps it's due to the age of my keyboard, but without a print screen program installed, nothing happens when I tap the print screen key.

I just tried using "Paint" with the "prtscr" key. It works like you said in both XP and also on my new Vista laptop.

I can see that there would be an extra step involved in using Paint, i.e. copy/paste & then edit or crop before saving. But, the up side is that you don't have to install another program when Windows already comes with one. (I know that both my machines already have a multitude of programs)

Unless Print Key has other useful features, I can't really seeing adding another program, just to save 1 step.

Of course when getting an image of the Playlist in Hoster, you will only get what you see on the screen. So, if you have more than 20 songs or use a larger font, then you will need to do this several times in order to get a copy of just 1 playlist.

It sure would be nice if MTU would take this into consideration with their next version. Being able to save lists, like you can with MicroStudio, I believe would be very helpful to all users. And I personally would like to be able to COMBINE lists, as well. I've spent almost 2 years compiling these lists & would like to be able to make better use of them.

print play list
 
same as me....this works and you can print any info from any program using this method.

hope this sorts your problem.
