Text Caption Effect
For information on how to access effects, see Accessing Effects.
SnagIt gives you the option of creating a customized Text Caption capture effect. This effect adds a caption, formatted to your specifications, during the capture process.
You can use captions to include a time/date stamp, system-related data, a title or any free text within your capture. You can customize the font, color, and placement of your captions.
To set up a Caption effect:
- From the Mode toolbar, select the Text Capture mode button.
- Select the Effects button within the Profile settings pane to see the dropdown menu of options.
- Select Caption, and the Text Caption dialog box will display.
- Place a check mark next to Enable Caption, then customize your caption and select OK. See also Text Caption Dialog Box Options.
- You will return to the main SnagIt view. Set your Input and Output capture options.
- Within the Profile settings pane, select the Preview Window option 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 caption 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, and 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 text Caption effect, select the Effects button within the Profile settings pane, and then select Caption. Within the Text Caption dialog box, remove the check mark from the Enable Caption option. Select OK. You will return to the main SnagIt view.
