Version 10 shows there’s plenty more–and they’re important tools, not just filler to make it look as if there’s reason to upgrade. Users of Snagit’s version 9 may well have wondered what else could be stuffed into a screen capture program already filled with so many features. And there were plenty of editing tools as well, notably tools for annotating screen captures.Īmong Snagit’s new features are dressed-up menu icons and the All-in-One capture tool. And it featured plenty of options as well, such as a capture timer, the ability to choose whether to include cursors, and more. Pretty much whatever you could see on your screen, you could grab.
Even in Snagit version 9, you could capture specific regions, windows, a full screen, scrolling windows, menus, entire Web pages, and videos.
Even before the new version 10 of Snagit ($50, 30-day free trial), the program sported the most comprehensive feature set of any screen-grabber. The world’s best screen capture program just got better.
This entry was posted in Computing and the Web. OK, I’ve found the Settings dialog, which like Dropbox is accessed from the Start Task Tray (normally at the right end of the Task Bar, near the clock): Answering ‘No Thanks’ seemed to free it up available for Snagit again.
UPDATE : Wouldn’t you know it, I had to reboot my PC overnight and after restart was once again greeted with a Snagit warning about a hotkey being in use by another profile! Turns out that Microsoft OneDrive had somehow nabbed it I’m not sure how this is controlled… but when I pressed PrintScreen a OneDrive dialog appeared asking if I wanted to share my screenshots on my OneDrive.
These different messages were confusing, especially as it was easy enough to confirm that ‘Print Screen’ was not a selected shortcut for any of my Snagit profiles! That left another application as the culprit. In essence, the problem was that I could not allocate the Print Screen hot key to trigger Snagit Global capture, because every time I tried to set it, the program complained that the key was already in use by another Profile, or application.
I’ve been meaning to write a review of Snagit for some time, but in advance of that, and having experienced some issues getting the Print Screen / PrintScreen / PrtScrn hotkey to work after setting up a new Windows 10 PC, I decided to blog what fixed the problem for me first.
