Automatic Screen Capturing

Some applications (especially games) take control of the keyboard and might make it impossible to press a key in order to capture the screen. Furthermore, you might want to automatically capture screen images without pressing a key. The AutoCapture Timer allows you to automatically capture screen images without pressing a key.

To activate the AutoCapture Timer, click Timer > Auto Capture On on the Main Window menu bar to open the Auto Capture dialog.

   

  1. Enter the number of seconds or click the arrows in the spin control to specify the number of seconds between each capture. The minimum elapsed time between screen captures is 10 seconds.
  2. Click OK to activate auto-capturing.
  3. To turn the AutoCapture Timer off, click Timer > Auto Capture Off on the Main Window menu bar.

Note: The AutoCapture Timer does not work with printing (you can print after the images are captured). It works only with screen capturing and when one of the following capture methods is selected:
