manually by these easy steps,

I captured a window using 'Text' capture. How come it only takes the title bar text? Text capture
is to capture an object's text label instead of image, such as taking a button's
label and a window title. Since text capture is window
dependent, it is possible some objects and windows content may not be captured
and converted to text as desired. For example, it may take the entire text
in Notepad, but for many windows, it only takes the title
bar text. I want to capture a transparent window, but it disappears. How come? To capture a transparent window,
make sure to select 'Active Window', or 'Full screen' in the
'Capture What' section on the From tab. How do I get rid of the red text on my capture? It might be the "AutoText" that you can check on/off in the "Add" group on the "From" tab. You can click "Options..." to change the format of the text appearing on your capture.

It's possible that the hotkey you chose has
been taken by other
programs without a notice. To make sure, open ScreenHunter by double-clicking on
the icon in the system tray, and press 'Stand By' again. This will try to set
your hotkey. Then run your DirectX program right away to capture.
I
captured a DirectX full screen, but it's blue or green only. How come?
DirectX programs change the
screen quickly, especially in games. There is a very good chance that at the
moment the hotkey is pressed, the screen is switching memory buffers. To make
sure you catch the real screen, press your hotkey several times to capture more
than once.
Because of the nature of DirectX programs, certain features
such as sending email will likely cause the system to crash. Those
features are in the "Cannot..." category. For some features, such as
using a combination of controls for the hotkey, Alt+Ctrl+P for instance, it
may
or may not work on some DirectX programs and screen savers. Before pressing the
P key, when you hold down Alt or Ctrl key, it may have taken some actions in the
program.
The
auto-capture is available when 'Active window', 'Full screen' or 'DirectX' capture is
selected in the 'Capture what' section. And if the interval is set to less
than 10 seconds, there will be no messages after capture.

How is the printed image size determined when I print a capture? Use the Wysiwyg Print dialog box to set up the way you want your
capture printed.
Why "Fit to page" printing is slow on my printer?
On some modern printers, the
default resolution for printing is high (high dpi). Because it takes time to
zoom the capture to the high resolution, it can go up to 30 seconds.
However, if the printer is set to "pool printing', when waiting for the
print out, you can still keep doing your tasks on your PC.

on the 'Advanced' tab.

Viewer but not make Viewer restored to show each

What if I need to zoom a capture?
In
Image Editor, how to make the selection tool select an area accurately?
When
'Keep only the last 30 images in Viewer' is checked on the Advanced tab, it
keeps the last 30 images or text, and discards the old ones to reduce the memory usage.
High
quality zooming is not available on Windows 95/98. You can tell Windows to use IE to open an image file all the time. To do
that, right-click the image file on Windows Explorer (Windows key + E to
launch Explorer). And select "Open With" in the menu, and "Choose Program..."
in the submenu.
Why is the Email checkbox disabled even I checked 'File' on the To tab? ScreenHunter needs an email management program that follows the MAPI standard
installed on your PC. Outlook is an example which follows the standard. To get an image from the Web, you can right-click the picture to save, or
capture it as a rectangular area or, use Web capture to download images.
From your hard drive, you can drag & drop one or
multiple image files from desktop and Windows Explorer and drop on the
ScreenHunter main window or Viewer.

[To capture full screen automatically from command line] Note: you can check where you want your capture copied or
printed on the "To" tab before exiting. ScreenHunter 5 Pro and 5 Plus has different license keys. Although they both
can be installed on the same machine at the same time to run side-by-side, but
it's not recommended. For greater performance, one has to be
un-installed before the other is installed. 1. Check the current version. Double click to open the ScreenHunter main
window. Title: "Wisdom-soft ScreenHunter 5 Pro", that's the "Pro" version. 2.
3. Uninstall all ScreenHunter programs. From Start/Programs/Wisdom-soft
ScreenHunter/Uninstall. Click the Start/Programs again to make sure no
ScreenHunter exists. 4. Run the install pack: "5 Pro": setupscreenhunter.exe You can download the reset REG file. And double click in Explorer to
run. This will reset all the options to the default ones. |
