When you enter a capture mode, the screen content is preserved as it was when you started capturing.

Instead of just capturing the visible portion of the page, this tool can capture all of the page in one image by scrolling through the page, taking images at set points and then stitching the images together.

Pressing the print screen button will allow you to select the captured area.

Easy to use selection tool with a magnifier to select only the part of the screen that you need.

Image editor, color picker, color palette, screen-ruler, etc.

There are many options to configure the way a screenshot is done:

• selection (whole screen, active window, rectangle, hand-drawn form)
• timeout (very useful when you like to show that pop-up or that mouse-over effect)

Screen captures can directly be opened in the included image editor, which provides many tools you need all the time on screenshots: drawing on it, cropping, blurring, color correction, etc.
