Hello mouser,

all I need is that you add in the zoom panel (here you see the red lines) the following options:

• Let me adjust the zoom (zoom in and zoom out)
  This can be done by clicking on the zoom panel and pressing the {+} and {-} keys on the keyboard
• Turn off / turn on a scale (numbers).
  This scale is depending on the zoom level, so when I zoom out to 16x enlargement, there should be one number in each line

Reason:
I work as Ergonomic Engineer and Usability Engineer.
So I check applications if they fulfil the needs according to DIN-EN-ISO 9241.
On part of my test is the font size and the font type.

Font Size
When I check the font size, I use Consuc Ruler.
Here I measure the font in the about box of SC.
See attached screen shot sc_font_size.png.
I add such screen shots to the screen shot of the application, so the IT projects can see on the screen shot, that the font is 9 pixels and this is too small.

Font Type
Here we check if some small characters (lie h) are larger than the capital characters.
Sorry for my bad English, it should become clear if you look at the attached screen shot sc_font_type.png
Here you see that the small "h" and "b" are larger than the capital "F".
These screen shots I also add to the screen shot of the application.

It would be cool when you add scale numbers and allow to zoom in.
So I would select a zoom level where each line has a number (so you can easily see the font height).
This way I just need ONE tool (Screenshot Captor) to make screen shots, to mark issues and to measure the font size and font type (by taking screenshots of the SC window and paste the small Zoom panel into the screenshot of the application).

Sample
For a sample showing how such a screen shot of an tested application can look like, see sample.png.
This is just a quick (and dirty) example.
But it should show how I work.

Hello,

I use Screenshot Captor to take screenshots for Ergonomic reports.
For the current report I have 57 screen shots.

We need all those screenshots in one single PDF file.
I know that Screenshot Captor can perform this already.

But the problem is, that we need it in a special layout:

• at the top right we need the logo of our department
• at the top left we need the filename of the screenshot
• at the bottom we need a foother with some additional information (name of the application, date, page)

So we have a Word template, that contains this all.
For the file-name we have the text <Fine-Name>, for the image we have the placeholder <Screen>.

It would be cool if I can select all images that I want to have in the word file, then select to export them wo Word and then select the Word file I want to use.
Screenshot Captor shoud recognize the tags <Fine-Name> and <Screen> and replace them with the data taken fromn the screen shot.
This should be repeated for each selected screen (so at the end I have a word file that contains one screenshot per page).

This feature would really be cool.
And it would safe us a lot of work (adding 57 screenshots manually took me nearly an hour).

Please consider this idea!

Hello Mouser,

SC did not ask, if I want to save when I clicked on an other image.
I hope I remember correctly (I am at home, so I can not re-test this).

If I open the image in an external editor you should show a modal dialog that asks me to click "OK" when I am finished editing the image with the external editor.
Would this be an option?

Greetings
