I'm kinda stuck in my test of using GetImage, below I have been trying to load 2 sprites to the screen and basically combine them into one image > create a sprite with that image > and load that sprite with confirmation that the two sprites that make up my new (3rd) sprite are deleted. Any help on how to do this with what I have would be appreciated...

It look OK. Try adding a SaveImage() to see what you have captured.

maybe it need once a sync() to init the screen settings.
use spr1=LoadSprite("image1.png") and look with print(spr1) if you got a id there.

Thank you for the responses! I have tried both options to no avail. The program doesn't seem to be capturing the GetImage. Any other ideas?

You need to draw the sprites to the backbuffer before you can capture them with getimage.
i.e.

at line 11, add:

drawsprite(1)
drawsprite(2)

Tried the DrawSprite code all over the place with different render/sync/swap combos & methods. Still getting nothing...

I know my code is drawing the sprites to the backbuffer because of the swap() command, something with GetImage() is causing the issues... I don't know why. I'm sure its the earlier code in prep of the command before its called thats causing issues. But what though? The GetImage() comes through invisible on my printimage(), but normally called images come out fine.

Any other ideas?

If you are using Windows this should work, but on the other platforms there was a bug that prevented GetImage from working after the latest image changes. This is fixed for the next version.

Maybe you could install an earlier version until the next version comes out
