Uploading through SnagIt saves a bunch of time on my part, and it’s a welcomed feature. My favorite option is the ability to upload the images directly to my Flickr account. E-mail and FTP uploads are just as easy, and you can visit the SnagIt Accessory page for more outputs that can be downloaded. If you need to send it to an application like Word, Excel, or Powerpoint, you can do that with a simple click. You can of course just save it as an image file, but there’s so much more you can do with it if needed. When everything is done, I just now need to figure out where to send it to. Once I have my image ready, now I can tag with some keywords, so if I need to find it later, I can find it via the search pane either through keywords, websites, date, and more. All I have to do is select a Callout image, add my text, and then add an arrow.
I used to have to break out Photoshop and add some arrows and text boxes, but no more. When I take a screenshot of say an application or website, I often need to make ‘notes’ about a specific part of the captured image. I just wanted to focus on a couple of my favorite features which I use regularly.
#SNAGIT 9 OLD APPS WINDOWS#
The View tab gives you control over zooming, windows arrangement, and help/training sections.The Tags tab lets you add keywords to your images, set flags for the images, and gives you a detailed description of the captured image.The Hotspots tab lets you add hotlinks, tooltips, and flash popups to your images.This section also gives you the options to add blur, color effects, filters, and much more. It also has an ‘image style’ section where you can apply a variety of edge effects, shadows, and other image styles.
#SNAGIT 9 OLD APPS FULL#
The SnagIt Editor is a very powerful tool, and TechSmith really poured some extra effort into making it a full fledged image editor. The hotkey option is definitely the best way to go.Īfter you capture is done, you can either take more or use the SnagIt Editor to do a variety of things with the images.
Once you are ready to take your screen capture, you can do it via a configurable hotkey setup, through the system tray, or through the main interface. You can also select a profile from the system tray, along with quick access to other common functions. SnagIt also allows you to create your own personal capture profiles to easily tailor the capture to your specific needs. Some of these include taking screen captures of regions, full screen, scrolling windows, webpages, and more. There are a bunch of capture profiles included. There are just a ton of options and configurations for SnagIt regarding captures and outputs, but they are easy to understand and configure. SnagIt 9 has a great integrated visual search and tagging/flag features to make organizing and finding your screen captures as simple as can be. You can now take multiple captures, and combine them by simple drag and drop The SnagIt Editor just became even more powerful, so now I can do editing right in SnagIt that I once had to use an external image editor for.
Perfect for when you need to take several screenshots, and you don’t have to worry about saving each one until you are done. When you take a screen capture, SnagIt automatically saves it until you decide on what to actually do with it. It’s a huge difference than previous versions, but it takes not time at all to become familiar with this one. The interface and workflow has undergone a complete makeover. Let me start off by showing what is new in version 9.
#SNAGIT 9 OLD APPS UPGRADE#
Even if you are a previous user of SnagIt, the upgrade is a must-have, and new users will be hooked on all the features it has. The old “print screen” button works just fine for taking screenshots every once and a while, but if you want to take it to the next level then you need to grab a copy of SnagIt 9 from TechSmith. Whether it’s taking screen captures of applications, games, skins, etc., having the ability to easily take these screenshots is a must. As you might know, taking screenshots is a big part of my daily work.
