I always did this for rooms I just opened when I started the game, and still will do it with the new event room. I know screen shot are possible with Windows and iPhone. I am not familiar with other systems.

This is also a brilliant trick for solving the Ancient Cards, using a magnifying glass to turn over the cards, screen shot, open screen shot, look for 2 to 4 pairs (depending on how well you remember), back to game to match those pairs, back to screen shot to pick up some more pairs. This way I typically solve with about 30 seconds left. I used this successfully for AC, starting a few weeks ago. I used WinKey+Shift+S to snip without opening the snip program. It gives a really clear pic. Last night it did not work. I think MT have got wise to this and as soon as I hold down the keys, the game shows the pause screen. Before it would pause with the cards showing, allowing me to use the mouse to frame to pic. Instead, I managed to use printscreen and paste into wordpad, with terrible picture quality. Not the end of the world, but WPad doesn't allow editing, so I can't crossout the ones I've already cleared, which is confusing for my pattern-recognition-wired brain!

For the rooms I use the locators here:https://seekers-notes.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_Hidden_Object_Locations. Solver2 will be delighted to have another user. I still use for the Mine sometimes. Small brag: I finished the Mine (Sleuth level) without tools, or zoom. or locator in 1:30 yesterday!!
