Navigation:  Advanced > Screen Capture

One of the little-Big helpers in Pattern Studio is the ability to capture a screen region or window.

There are three buttons on the bottom tool bar for screen capture.

The first is the switch to hide the Pattern Studio window before capturing.

The second is Region Capture.  A second after you press this button, a red cross hair will appear on the screen allowing you to select a region that  you would like to capture. After you select that region the image will be directly transferred to Pattern Studio.

The third is a Window capture. This option allows you to capture the window or windows control without having to select a region manually with the cross-hair. As you move around your screen you will see that a window under the cursor will be highlighted. In Windows terminology the window, is any defined object, for example a button or a list box. Even a simple window, many times consists of the main window with the header text, and a client window which lies on top of it.

With the Window capture you can precisely capture windows and objects. Great for making a tutorial.

Note: For Multi-Monitor users: The Screen Capture works in Monitor 1. If you need Multi-Monitor enabled screen capture use for example our UltraSnap.
