I've used Camera to capture pictures of pulled-down menus several times,
on SE and SE/30 and have had no problems.  I seem vaguely to remember some
reported problems with Camera's wanting to sound a beep and hanging then.
There was a patch to this which was posted here some months ago.  I never
had to use it, as I had no problems, but someone must have posted it here.

Is there anyone out there?
