Take a screen shot? I found something neat in Adv. Mode and wanted to share it.

I'm currently making a nice room for my legendary clerk. I always treat my legendaries with the greatest respect, giving them the best rooms and so on. Although the walls are mostly engraved with pictures of my miner starving to death after he fell down a well, so it's not too cheerful.

Why, the Print Screen button! :P Conveniently located on the upper-right hand side of your keyboard, in-between Pause|Break and Scroll Lock. If you mean of the sole window itself to avoid any cropping in Paint, I'm not sure, though you could maximize the window to help get a greater breadth of things in the shot.

In order to take a screenshot of just the current focused window and not your entire screen, simply hold alt while pressing print screen.

Save it as a .png or a crappy jpeg. The latter would be better if you're not using MSpaint of course.
