Once installed, Snagit resides in two places: a camera icon in the menu bar, plus a handy, yet unobtrusive, tab on the right of the screen: click it to access the key options you need, such as whether or not to include the cursor and what hotkey to use. All grabs are held in a capture tray, for easy retrieval and reviewing, and all unsaved grabs are automatically stored too, just in case. There are handy editing tools too: customisable elements for drawing attention to parts of the grabbed images, special effects such as borders, shadows and perspective, plus the ability to combine images simply by dragging one on to another – all with layers, enabling you to easily put together customised screens.įinished images can be dragged and dropped directly into other applications, including Office and iWorks, plus there are options for sharing via the web, email or FTP too. It can capture the desktop, windows, scrolling windows and regions, instantly or via a user-defined delay, all with single keystrokes.

Mindful of this, TechSmith ported its popular Windows screen-capture tool on to the Mac platform. It's a basic tool, and it's not as easy to use as it might be. The problem is, the more you use it, the more frustrating it becomes.

You can overlay a mouse pointer if you wish and the results are perfectly serviceable.
