To capture a selected area:
1. Select File: Screen Capture - Setup.
2. Under the Source options, choose Selected area. You can also modify other
capture options, if necessary.
3. Click Capture Now to close the dialog box.
4. Locate the area that you want to capture. You can capture any area on the
screen, including the PhotoImpact program window, other program windows,
overlapping windows, or the entire Desktop.
5. Take the screen shot by pressing the Hotkey specified in Activation. A small
viewer window appears. This window offers controls on the top edge that guide
you when capturing. Among other functions, this allows you to:
• Move the viewer window around the four corners of the screen by clicking
any of the four buttons on the upper left of the window.
• Disable the window but continue to capture by clicking Close.
• Disable the window & exit screen capture by clicking Stop or pressing [Esc].
6. Click once to mark the starting point - when you move the cursor, a rectangle
appears, letting you specify the area to be captured. After marking the desired
area, click again to signify the end point of the selection area.
Note: If the small viewer window gets in the way of what you want to capture, you
can either move it around the four corners of your monitor screen or close it.
To capture a selected object:
1. Select File: Screen Capture - Setup.
2. Under the Source options, choose Selected object.
3. Click Capture Now to close the dialog box.
4. Take the screen shot by pressing the Hotkey specified in Activation. The
program then "divides" the active window into separate objects for each button,
menu, or workspace. The mouse pointer changes from an arrow icon into a
circle with crosshairs inside it.
5. Select the object you want to capture by placing the cursor directly over the
object. You can tell if the object has been selected by the presence of a black
border surrounding it.
6. Click once to capture.
