Clear-cut installation and UI

The setup procedure is fast, and the only notable aspect about it is that it needs .NET Framework installed. As far as the interface goes, it adopts a standard window with a ribbon bar split into three menus: capture, edit, and view.

Take screenshots and make adjustments

It's possible to grab the full screen or fixed region, along with selected window or object. The image is loaded in the main application window. SnipSnip enables you to set a delay, include or exclude the mouse cursor, and allow layered windows.When it comes to editing options, you can draw with a pen, rectangle or ellipse, customize the color, add text, as well as crop, resize, trim, rotate or flip the picture. It can be copied to the Clipboard, and you can zoom in and out. In order to save images, all you have to do is specify an output directory and file name.

Configure program settings

By default, the utility automatically checks for software updates at startup, and this can be disabled. Furthermore, you can modify the default delay time, anti-flicker, image background color, capture overlay and object/window highlight color, saving location, naming pattern, file type, or JPEG quality. Keyboard shortcuts are supported for all important commands, and they can be remapped into anything else.
