maximus otter Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 I am soon to perform my first ever Optimum Charge Weight test. I'd like to be able to plot bullet holes on scaled targets, and calculate group centres accurately rather than just eyeball where I think the centre is. I've seen several posts here on UKV showing the kind of thing I'm after. Results should be like this: I have a Windows 8.1 laptop and an iPad Pro 9.7" Free is always good, but I'd be prepared to pay a modest sum for an ideal piece of software. Suggestions, gents? maximus otter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcampbellsmith Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 I have a Windows 8.1 laptop and use OnTarget (paid version) to measure group sizes. Regards JCS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
furrybean Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 As above. Do it every time I play with a load and document all the details and save the results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maximus otter Posted August 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 Thanks, gents, that looks spot on. I should just have gone with the example in the image I chose, shouldn't I? maximus otter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooter Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 The free version of on Target still works with Win 8, you just have to ignore the pop up warning and carry on as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maximus otter Posted August 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 Right: I've downloaded the OnTarget free trial program and used it to input info on two A4 sheets of targets. Teddy has come flying out of the pram more than once, but I seem to have the hang of the basics now. I do, however, have one or two questions if anyone can help: 1. How do you save the images of your targets so that all of the info panels (the labels in white which show the group size, dispersion etc.) are visible as in my original post? 2. How do I save those images (see above) as .jpg files? maximus otter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggy Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 No experience of OnTarget, but I suspect that ''print screen', followed by pasting into PowerPoint, then right click - save as, would do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As above and then edit the resulting picture or.. Click the windows key or your keyboard Type snip into the search box This should filter to an icon for the windows screen snipping tool Hit the enter key Windows snipping tool runs Select the area of the screen you want to snap shot The resulting selection can be saved as most types of picture file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooter Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 No need, Im sure there is an option saying print view as graphic or similar Thats what I use Been trying to work this out on the free version on and off today, and the option to save as only saves the image file and does not include the data panel. There may be an option with the full version, which does have a free fifteen day trial license. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
