Allows you to arrange the screen as you want it captured. Things like opening a popup menu, to have it part of the capture.

Just about any text on the screen can be editable text. I say "just about" because it's like OCR software in that unusual and extra fancy fonts or text against a low contrast background may be a challenge. But overall it works in most situations.
