The window below opens when you have completed the initial manual screen capture. This window displays a thumbnail of the captured image and the options available when the Save Image to File option is selected.

View

Click on the View button to see an exact copy of what has been captured. This may help decide whether to save the image or try again.

Save

You can save the captured image to one of five different file types - bitmap, jpeg, gif, png or tif file. Click on the Save button to be prompted with a standard save dialog box where you can enter a name and path for the file. The filename and file type default to what is saved in the Preference settings.

If the ‘Include Image Counter in Default Filename' option is enabled, the file name defaults to image0001 for the first save after running the program. The second capture defaults to image0002, etc. You can override the default file name by inserting another name. Similarly you can select a different file type.

Try Again

If the capture didn't turn out as well as hoped for, press the Try Again button to restart the capture. This eliminates the need to click on the Done or Cancel button to quit the capture and start again from scratch.
