Set Up Your Capture > Capture Effects > Edge Effects

Edge Effects

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

SnagIt gives you the option of adding an Edge Effect effect to your captures. Edge Effects are special effects that you place around the outside edges of your capture.

The Edge Effects include a drop shadow, torn, faded, wave, saw, sharktooth and beveled edge.

The Edge Effects options allow you to customize the edges of your capture by:

Changing the size and location of the effect
Adding a shadow and defining its size, location and color
Adding an outline and defining its size and color
Changing the background color

Note: It is important to note that each specific Edge Effect has its own particular set of options. For a table listing each of the different Edge Effects options, see Edge Effects Options.

To set up an Edge 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 Edge Effects. From the dropdown menu, select the desired Edge Effect.
The Edge Effect task page will display.
Customize your Edge Effect and select OK. See also Edge Effects Options.
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 Edge Effect 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, 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 an Edge Effects effect, select the Effects button, and then select Edge Effects. From the fly-out menu, select None.
