Screenshot Captor / Re: Is there a better way to navigate around the folder tree in the Thumbnail Panel?

« on: January 05, 2026, 05:38 AM »

I use View >>> Screenshot Panel: Simple list on the left.
All screenshots are named and numbered by topics with "file name quick field"
All my screenshots are in subfolders in

c:\...\screenshots\
c:\...\screenshots\topic1
c:\...\screenshots\topic2
...

So it's really simple to navigate in only a few folders

Screenshot Captor / Re: Not saving with filename specified in preferences

In the main ScreenshotCaptor window you've in the lower right-hand corner a field for quick file naming.
This is for quick naming a series of screenshots aside the default setting.
Maybe you've put some text in there.

Screenshot Captor / Re: File-icons disappear when changing "Toolbar icon sizing"

« on: October 06, 2021, 07:00 AM »

Hi Mouser,

did you have time to look for this topic?

The file icons in the sreenshot panel (simple list) are really disappearing when switching "Toolbar icon sizing" to bigger icons (24, 32, 48, 64)
and the screenshot folder is on a synchronized folder (e.g. onedrive) with overlay-icons. (picture in first post 08-07-2020).

If I use another screenshot folder without overlay-icons, I can use bigger icons without problems.
But I need the screenshot folder in the cloud.

I've tested with other screenshot folder because my original screenshot folder is synchronized with OneDrive so that file icons have overlay icons with synchronization information.

When I chose another folder without overlay icons I can use bigger toolbar icon.
The file and folder icons in the "list of filenames" on the left side are correctly shown (also in the desired size).

When I switch back to my default screenshot folder which is synchronized with OneDrive, all file and folder icons are gone away.
But I need the folder on OneDrive because I have the same folder on 2 PC.

So I think the problem is to scale the overlays icons (ore to disable the overlays).

Uplifting.

Hi mouser,

any plans for discussed features?

• customizable toolbars, buttons for more (all) menu entries (my most commonly used functions are'nt available as toolbar buttons)
• customizable hotkeys for menu entries (functions)

Also

• bigger toolbar buttons

which now can be resized on "More Interface Options" isn't working well for me.
I can only use 16x16 (original) icons because if i use bigger icons, the folder- and file-icons in THUMBNAIL panel on the left are disappearing.
It seems that they are also resized and are now too big for the line with the filename.
Look at screenshots in topic https://www.donation...ex.php?topic=50113.0

Screenshot Captor / Re: Can Settings be Exported to an ini File?

« on: January 10, 2021, 06:31 AM »

Your settings are located in ScreenshotCaptor.ini

In portabe SSC it's in SSC-Folder ...\ScreenshotCaptor\ScreenshotCaptor.ini

In setup-version normally it's in ...Users\USERNAME\Documents\DonationCoder\ScreenshotCaptor

You can make a copy of ScreenshotCaptor.ini and put it back after new setup.

If I use bigger icons for the toolbar the file- and folder-icons on the left side of the filnames disappear.
(Top picture on the attachment)

It seems that they are also resized and the size is too big for the column.

If I switch to 16x16 px for the toolbar the file- and folder-icons are displayed.
(Bottom picture on the attachment)

EDIT: This is strange! After writing this in the morning, I started SC and everything is ok!
         The file- and folder-icons are displayed also with bigger size.
         I sweare, they were disappeared for weeks, so I made that screenshot in the first post.

Excuse me, I think it was a falsch alarm.

Best wishes

Screenshot Captor / File-icons disappear when changing "Toolbar icon sizing"

« on: July 08, 2020, 07:00 AM »

Hi Mouser,
I'm using the new option for "Toolbar icon sizing" with icon size 24x24.
With this setting the screenshotpanel on the left is also enlarging the file- and folder-icons so that the place for them is too small.
They are only displayed with iconsize 16x16.

Thank for your ongoing hard work!

I've just created some hotkeys for my favorite screenshotcaptor functions with autohotkey.
They are working well, but a solution for hotkeys and toolbar buttons inside screenshotcaptor are hopefully expected.

Stay healthy

Hi mouser,
new beta out, but no function like proposed in this thread.
Do you still have extension of toolbar or hotkeys in mind?

Stay healthy

Screenshot Captor / Re: LATEST VERSION INFO THREAD - ScreenshotCaptor - v4.36.1 beta - Jan 2, 2020

« on: January 06, 2020, 04:18 AM »

Hi mouser,
I've tested v 4.36.2.

Delete Contents of Selection is working as expected. I think it's ok for a SpecialFX function not to be bound to the Delete key by default?
If you some time give us a possibility to define custom hotkeys for all functions, everyone can make his own preferred hotkeys.

. . . there is a spelling mistake for this function: "Delete contents of selection (make stransparent)"

"Toolbar icon sizing" also works like expected. 24x24 is ok for me. Bigger icons are extremely pixelated.


Are customizable toolbars (positions), buttons for other menu entries and customizable hotkeys on your plan for the near future?

Thanks for your awesome software

If people let me know there favorite features that they would like to see toolbar buttons for I will add them right away.

-mouser (September 27, 2019, 06:20 PM)

My favorite features for toolbar buttons and hotkeys are:

SpecialFX2: Patchtext/contents of selected region with background
SpecialFX2: Splice out strip defined by selection - Deluxe effects
Objects: Flatten all objects to background

I use them every Screenshot Captor session.

are there any thoughts from you about the proposed feature ideas?

Hi Mouser,

nice to hear that you're looking for more feature ideas.

I remember some old ideas (but didn't find the original forum-topics):

• customizable toolbars, buttons for more (all) menu entries (my most commonly used functions are'nt available as toolbar buttons)
• bigger toolbar buttons
• customizable hotkeys for menu entries (functions)

You can capture the first screenshot with "Grab selected Region" and capture the following screenshots with "Grab Repeat last size+pos".

Screenshot Captor / Re: Too Many Entries in System Settings

« on: October 25, 2016, 11:50 AM »

Maybe you've started each screenshotcaptor.exe-version from another directory?

You can clean up the cache for the trayicons with regedit (https://www.deskmodd..._l.C3.B6schen_lassen)

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify

Delete the two entries:
    IconSteams
    PastIconStream

Or you can use a cleaning tool like "Notification Area Cleaner" (http://www.itsamples...on-area-cleaner.html)

Not tried by myself because no need.

Screenshot Captor / Re: Text box background problem

« on: June 02, 2016, 11:22 PM »

I think your problem is the blend mode "muliply". Switch to blend mode "normal" and your transparancy will work.
Blend modes are used to defgine how two layers are blended into each other.

Screenshot Captor / Re: Pasted picture or dropped picture is not completely intransparent

« on: August 28, 2015, 01:19 AM »

I'm a little bit confused at the moment!

I started this thread on one computer with a new NEC monitor and I definitively see the backround shine through the foregroundpicture.
Then I looked at this thread on my other computer with an older Dell monitor and couldn't see the shine through.  
I also downloaded the picture and looked at it with zoom. No shine through.

First I thought it was a problem in uploading image, but back at my NEC monitor I opened this thread again and the shine through was back!  

So I loaded the picture in Gimp and looked at the color information of the white area and of the light grey shinining through area.
Maybe the difference of 254 to 255 isn't visible on all monitors, but on my NEC it's always visible.

When I paste this foreground picture on the backround picture in Gimp the result is a clear white area with no shine through.

Is there a possibility of correcting this little aberration?

Screenshot Captor / Pasted picture or dropped picture is not completely intransparent

« on: August 27, 2015, 08:59 AM »

Hi Mouser,

when I copy a picture and paste it on an existing screenshot the pasted picture is not completely intransparent.
Same behaviour with dragging a screenshot on another screenshot an put it on top of the backround picture.

Transparency is still set to 255 but the the backround is shining through the frontpicture.
