If Windows' built-in screen-capture abilities satisfy you, you probably haven't tried HyperSnap-DX. With this professional utility, you can capture images you never could have before. For instance, you can grab only a button image, whether active or inactive, with or without the mouse pointer showing. The application also lets you nab stills from a video game while you're playing, or create a how-to slide show by capturing active regions at a constant size. The Capture menu lists all the keyboard shortcuts for available actions, and the help file tells you what those actions do. If you choose the wrong action, the built-in tools let you edit your screengrab. The trial version stamps all images with ads for the software, but you should be able to quickly figure out whether this program is one you want to pay for.
HyperSnap-DX 4 is a screen capture and image editing tool. It can capture screens from standard desktop programs and DirectX/Direct3D, 3Dfx Voodoo and Glide mode games. HyperSnap-DX 4 can snag DVD players and other video software, auto-scroll, and concurrently capture long Web pages and other documents, enabling it to grab more than is visible on the screen.
New additions in version 4.10 offer a customizable top toolbar with new functions, a new keyboard interface to control mouse movement with 1 pixel precision, feature and control enhancements, and more.
Note: This unregistered version adds a Hyperionics logo and Web address to printed or saved pictures. Full registration costs $35.
