Set Up Your Capture > Capture Effects > Border Effect

Border Effect

For information on how to access effects, see Accessing Effects.

SnagIt gives you the option of creating a customized Border capture effect. This effect adds a border around the capture, formatted to your specifications, during the capture process.

Using the border options, you can select a width for the border and its shadow, put the border outside or inside within the image, apply a 3D effect to make it look raised, select highlight and shadow colors, and more.

To set up a Border effect:

From the Mode toolbar, select the Image Capture mode button.
Select the Effects button within the Profile settings pane to see the dropdown menu of options.
Select Border, and the Border task page will display.
Customize your border and select OK.
You will return to the main SnagIt view. Set your Input and Output capture options.
Select the Preview Window button from the Options toolbar.
Select the Capture button to invoke capture.
Once the capture is taken, it will be displayed within the Capture Preview window with the customized Border effect applied to it.
Select Finish to send your capture to the output source. Or, select Cancel to delete the capture.

Tip: Once you have taken a capture and viewed it with the Capture Preview window to ensure that it is the exact effect that you desire, then you can always disable the Preview Window option so you no longer have to view the capture in the Capture Preview window each time you take a capture.

Tip: To disable a Border effect, select the Effects button, and then select Border. Within the Border task page, disable the Enable Border option and select OK.
