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 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 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.
Version 4.30.01 features Button Capture with one mouse click or one hot key pressed, automatic pasting and tiling of captured/scanned images on one big image, and options to change HyperSnap-DX window background and image position within it. There is an "Acquire Multiple Images" function to get pictures from scanners, digital cameras, etc., and more.
