General Information

HandySnap features a tiny, concise user interface that doesn’t obscure the desktop (see the screenshot above). By implementing a Photoshop-style design in the interface, the program minimizes the learning curve for users who can start using the program right out of the box. The interface consists of three main areas with a set of icons: capture tools area, built-in editor, and screenshot operations area. Any screenshot action is available in one click. With HandySnap, you can capture any portion of the screen by using a resizable trimming frame, take a snapshot of an active window, the whole desktop or repeat the last capture action.

After a screenshot is taken, the image displays in a separate window where it can be further edited using a multitude of markers. You can add textual comments, pixel art symbols, arrows, free-hand lines, rectangular frames, or ellipses. To give your screenshot a professional gloss, you can experiment with a semi-transparency effect, modify object color and line size. Any object can be easily moved over the screenshot. To be more productive, you can customize HandySnap to use hotkeys or automate certain capture actions. You can get the program generate file names based on the specified pattern, send screenshots to clipboard or save to files.
