Request : mouse pointer shadow

(1/2) > >>

The RedBurn:
With that, Screenshot Captor would be very near from the perfection.
For now, the only way to get a shadow is to superimpose a transparent pointer image including a shadow.

mouser:
interesting idea..

i wonder if i could have screenshot captor capture the location of the cursor and dynamically insert a cursor "object" that could then be moved around, hiddent, given a shadow, etc.  it's a possibility.. not sure how hard it would be yet. i'll look into it.  might want to submit an official bug/feature request using the "bugtracker" button above so i don't forget :)

AbteriX:
Hi RedBurn

there are  pointer-cliparts delivert with Captor.
You can insert this clips as "object".
All objects can have additionally shadow.



HTH ?

f0dder:
I wonder if it's possible to capture the actual pointer? If it's drawn hardware accelerated or even if windows just hides it when doing a bitblt, it could prove problematic :)

mouser:
maybe this issue needs clarification:
1) screenshot captor has an option to capture the cursor and display it.
2) as stefan points out, it's often more useful to not capture it, but add a cursor as an object afterwards, which lets you move it, resize it, and give it a shadow.  screenshot captor comes with a whole directory full of various cursor objects for this purpose.
3) i was suggesting the best of both worlds, ie capture cursor location and auto add a cursor object at the appropriate place.
