Capture Preview Window Effects Menu

The Effects menu allows you to access a variety of special effect options. To select an Effects option, simply select the desired option from the dropdown menu.

The following table gives a general description of each of the Capture Preview window Effects menu options along with their description and use.

Menu Item Name	Description
Caption	Use this option to set caption options for image and video captures. These can include the time and date and other system-related data. See also Caption Task Page.
Border	Use the border feature to add a border around images you capture. This allows you to select a width for the border and its shadow, put it outside or in the image, apply a 3D effect to make it look raised, and select colors for the border. See also Border Task Page.
Perspective & Shear	Use this option to move the corners of a bitmap in the fashion of a parallelogram. To apply a perspective/shear effect to your capture: With the image in the Capture Preview window, select Effects >Perspective Shear. The Perspective & Shear task page displays. Use the slider bars to select percentages of Horizontal and Vertical difference and angles of Horizontal and Vertical shear. If desired, select a Background Color from the palette for the area behind the image. The preview window shows the changes as they are made. Select OK to accept the changes. See also Perspective & Shear Task Page.
Spotlight & Magnify	The Spotlight & Magnify options allow you to select a portion of the capture and modify it using a magnification effect as well as darkening and blurring effects. See also Spotlight & Magnify Task Page.
Edge Effects	SnagIt's Edge Effects contain a wide variety of filter options for altering the edges of your screen capture. Drop Shadow Edge Fade Edge Torn Edge Wave Edge Saw Edge Sharktooth Edge Beveled Edge See also Edge Effects Task Page.
Watermark	Select this option to add a watermark to the capture such as a company logo. Use watermarks to put other data into the graphic, like titles and banner ads. Graphic files in BMP, GIF, or, JPG format can be used as watermarks. See also Watermark Task Page.
Trim	Select this option to trim or cut the outside borders of your capture. When enabled, the number of pixels you specify are automatically trimmed. See also Trim Task Page.
Image Processing	Select any of these effects to enhance your capture. These effects can be applied to just a region of the image. Use the cursor to select a region of the image, and then apply the effect. To access Image Processing effects, select Effects > Image Processing. A fly-out menu shows more choices. Select the desired effect. Posterize Applies a poster effect on the image. See also Posterize.
Image Processing (cont.)	Pixelate Imposes a mosaic effect on a image by dividing the bitmap into tiles of a specified size and changing the color of all pixels in each tile to the average color of pixels in the tile. See also Pixelate. Average Blur Changes the color of each pixel in the image to the average color of pixels in its neighborhood. This causes a blur effect. See also Average Blur. Median Blur Changes the color of each pixel in the image to the median color of pixels in its neighborhood. This is equivalent to the Average filter, but it is used to decrease noise, rather than add a blur effect. See also Median Blur. Sharpen Increases or decreases the sharpness of the image. See also Sharpen. Add Noise Adds pixels to an image at any location, letting you specify percentage of coverage and the color plane. See also Add Noise. Emboss Applies an emboss effect to the image, letting you specify depth and direction of the effect. See also Emboss. Oil Painting Applies an oil-painting effect to the image. See also Oil Painting. Underlay Combines two images so that one looks to be an underlying texture for the other. This is good when the underlying image is a filtered one, such as an embossed image. See also Underlay. Solarize Applies an effect that mimics the accidental exposure of photographic film to light. It does so by inverting all color data with an intensity value greater than or the same as the threshold that you give. See also Solarize. Edge Detection Detects the edges within the image. See also Edge Detection. Edge Enhance Enhance the edges in the image.
