Snagit
Snagit is screen capture and screen recording software for Windows and macOS. It is created and developed by TechSmith and was first launched in 1990. Snagit is available in English, French, German, Japanese, Portuguese and Spanish versions.
Snagit replaces the native print screen function and extends it with additional features.
Features
The features are structured around the three main steps of the software workflow: capture, edit and share.Capture
Snagit Capture allows the user to capture an image or record a video. There are various capture methods, including fullscreen selection, specific region selection, menu selection, text recognition and panoramic selection. Alternatively, the software can record a video.Hotkeys and shortcuts are available to speed up the capture process.
The Snagit Capture file is a cross-platform compatible file format used to store image captures both on Windows and Mac. Snagit 2021 and earlier versions stored image captures in.snag and.snagproj formats; the two formats were not compatible.
Videos recordings are stored in.mp4 format.
Edit
Using Snagit Editor, a captured image can be resized, annotated with arrows and callouts, or given other effects such as borders. Another feature is to create a video from the captured images.The software also allows the creation of tutorials. There are also confidentiality features. Video editing is limited to basic features such as trimming.
Share
The resulting image or video can be shared as a local file, to another application or uploaded online.Although most of the main features are identical between the Windows and Mac versions of the software, some effects are specific to one version .
