Yes, a user way is what I want. Ideally one could select any
singleton View, which might be a whole Window (Ctrl-Space), or
just one View within it.

None of the above. I have a 'finished' View/Document in BB, and
want to be able to copy it to Word or Powerpoint or ....
I don't want to further modify it there, in fact many of
my Views are 'clever' with built in modifying tools which
(sometimes) work in other applications using OLE. I want
these tools disabled, so a static bitmap is better for me
than an active View.
I know bitmaps use lots of memory, but I don't really care
about that (PP seems to do some image compression, so it
is not as bad as I feared).
However what I DO WANT is for the View to LOOK THE SAME.
So far the only way that does that is to do a full screen
bitmap capture (Print Screen), then to use some bitmap
package (eg Paint) to (approximately & tediously) clip
out the wanted part.
What I suspect is that all other methods, in one way or
another, use metafile format, and this simply does not
work correctly. The worst (but not only) culprit
is vertical or slanted text. I have also had to trim
labels from unicode (16 bit) to Ascii (8 bit) although
NT claims to support unicode.
I just felt that if there was a way of getting BB to paste
the View, as a bitmap, on the clipboard, I would bypass
the complexities, unreliabilities, and limitations, of
these external elements such as the metafile renderer.
As an aside, it would also be nice to be able to
save a selected view to file as a bitmap.
