I use the Print Screen button when I just want to do a capture that I’ll copy and paste into a document or web app. This isn’t necessarily a new feature, but it’s definitely been exposed in a new way. I’ve created a couple presets to help me. My main workflow is to capture an image, add some arrows and text to get my point across, and then send it to where it needs to be. In my role, the name of the game is being efficient, so I enjoy the time savings I get from customizing Snagit. Everyone works a little different, so we encourage users to make Snagit work for their needs. With GIFs, I can make my content easier to absorb and view.Īnother thing we’ve done in this release is make is easier to customize Snagit. I personally need to be efficient, but I also don’t want to waste the time of our customers or our team.

So, I’ll start by taking a quick video, trim and cut out the parts that aren’t relevant, and then make it into a GIF. Video has been great for that in previous versions, but sometimes it’s just too much for a couple simple steps. And when I show someone how to do something in Snagit or need to communicate a usability issue or bug to our team, I want to quickly and succinctly demonstrate it. A regular part of my day is helping out customers and getting feedback from our beta users, user test participants, or customers from our forums. Chris, what are your favorite new features?Ĭhris: GIF creation definitely takes the cake for the new feature that I use the most in Snagit. Geetesh: Snagit 13 is considered to be a major upgrade with a cleaner interface, video captures, and so much more.
