Mangled PNG on MacOS
On my Windows 10 system, screen images are captured reliably. But on my Mac PowerBook, most of the time the PNG data is mangled. I'm not sure if this is timing issue or a driver issue. What's very odd is that it used to work better -- I'm not sure what's changed.
pyvisa-info tells me this:

Also, when I change the saved data format from PNG to BMP, it mostly works, and shows only a few errant lines towards the bottom of the saved image.
