Capture entire page does not work for a very large page
I downloaded and installed Chromium 64-bit, and installed a-s-minus as the only extension. (My idea was to use Chromium only for taking screenshots.)
Then I tried it on a very big web page, an article with 215 Disqus comments. A-s-minus appeared to be working, but when it was done there was no screenshot, just a large blank page with a textured background.
The web page in question is:
Before trying to capture the page, I fully-expanded the web page, as follows:
- Adjust the browser window to almost full-height, and about 3/4 width, on the screen. (It happened to be 1336x1006, but I'm sure that doesn't matter.)
- expanded all the Disqus comments: Ctrl-End, then click the "Load more comments" button, and repeat until there are no more to be loaded (about five times).
- click on "Close ad" to close the annoying advertisement on the left.
- search for "see more" to find the truncated comments, and expand each truncated comment (about 23 of them).
- manually PgDn from the top (or PgUp from the bottom) over the entire web page, to make all the images load.
- search for and expand one more "see more" which appears due to step 5.
Then try to capture the entire page -- it doesn't work.
The OS is Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit. This is a nice Dell Inspiron 620 desktop computer, with an i5 CPU, big SSD, and 8 GB of RAM.
that is a moderate-sized page, so i'd expect AS- to be able to capture it and not keel over. but i know that it is quite inefficient at present, raw image data is stored uncompressed and set multiple times, used in a number fo different canvas... so yeah, it's a problem.
unfortunately, i don't have time to work on AS- right now, so no promises as to when it will be fixed.
