Screen Capture è in circolazione da molti anni ed è stata un'opzione fondamentale per la maggior parte degli utenti dal PC al mondo mobile. Personalmente uso quel piccolo tasto PRTSCR sul mio portatile per molte ragioni, dal prendere screenshot delle mie applicazioni per mettermi in mostra, un'immagine dal web che non volevo scaricare; ma che sapevo, sarei stato il montaggio - o videoconferenza con i miei figli adolescenti, che vivono fuori dallo stato, e fare uno screenshot per fare un piccolo Photoshopping divertente con loro e molti altri motivi, quando catturare uno screenshot mi fa risparmiare tempo.
In un'intervista al CES con Aaron Woodman, direttore del settore delle comunicazioni mobili di Microsoft, CNET ha chiesto a Microsoft di aggiungere un'utilità di screenshot ai dispositivi Windows Phone 7 e la seguente è stata la risposta:
I have never sat in a user group–and I sit in a lot of user groups, a lot of retail groups–I’ve never heard an end user go ‘why can’t I take a screenshot of that?’.
According to Woodman, it’s also not always the users who help Microsoft determine which features need to be fast-tracked. “We do a lot of things for reporters,” Woodman said. “I would argue things like the Mac connector software–the software that lets you take your Windows Phone and connect it to an Apple PC of some form, and basically pull over music from iTunes and photos and that kind of stuff–it wasn’t built because we thought there was a significant market opportunity for Mac loyalists out there who were dying to buy a Windows Phone. It was built because reporters would show up with Macs,” Woodman said.
Well ahead of a screenshot tool is a laundry list of features Microsoft plans to add, including the ones competitors have already put out, which Woodman referred to as “gaps.”
Something that would let you snap photos of text conversations is one thing. Where Woodman said some problems could arise is with capturing certain types of content if there’s copy-protection involved.
The other half of the equation, Woodman explained, is that developers who wanted to take screenshots of their applications have had the means since the introduction of the Windows Phone 7 SDK. “There’s a ton of ways to do it within the emulator, so application developers have no problem with that,” Woodman said.
“The reality is, we have a DRM requirement for our marketplace, which makes things like HDMI and those types of things out, more difficult,” Woodman said. “We’ve made a choice to have a more protected set of content on the phone and available to consumers, so we do have restrictions within that,” he said.
Woodman said the feature could end up in a future build of the OS software though. “Not that we couldn’t technically do it. I mean, at the end of the day it’s software,” he said. “We could definitely choose to do screenshot capabilities if you’re not in these three experiences.”
In breve, se stai cercando Screen Capture in Windows Phone 7, non sta succedendo presto! Quando Microsoft ascolterà effettivamente i suoi utenti e aggiungerà le funzionalità più richieste!
Non ti piacerebbe poter dire, Windows Phone 7 è stata anche la mia idea!
