Set Up Your Capture > Capture Effects > Trim Effect

Trim Effect

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

Use the Trim effect options to cut the outside borders of images you capture. You can trim the top, bottom, and sides of your capture in any combination. When the Trim effect is enabled, the number of pixels you specify will be automatically trimmed. You can also select Automatic trimming which allows SnagIt to determine the best trim based on the amount solid color around the edges of your capture.

SnagIt gives you the option of creating a customized Trim capture effect. Using the Trim effect, you can set SnagIt to trim the specified number of pixels from any or all sides of your captures.

To set up a Trim 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 Trim. The Trim task page will display.
Set the desired trim options 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 Trim 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 the Trim effect, select the Effects button, and then select Trim. From within the Trim task page, enable the None option. Select OK.
