I need it to just be the same size as the image, eg one sentence of text.

what i mean, is i grabbed and resized/removed the zoom and naming boxes, but that just makes the main window larger.
and if i try to resize the main window by grabbing the bottom right corner, it won't resize small enough. (still about a quarter of my screen) is there a size restriction?

hi, thanks, i didn't see that. that's good, but when i grab the bottom corner, it won't resize any smaller.
am i doing something wrong? does the image window have a minimum size?

ok , maybe i just need to strip the main window down a bit more.
how do you hide the zoom and name boxes?

Ok well I am open to hearing requests to modify that functionality.  My memory is it was implemented mainly so people could view captures at FULL screen size, without the normal SC interface getting in the way.. Most useful for people with multiple monitors, so one monitor can be only the screenshot and another is SC with large thumbnail browser functionality.

i see, it's a great program for lots of things, but i need something simple and quick.
even if the 'toggle standalone screenshot window' could be set to work as default, would be good, so i don't have to go into settings to turn it on. time is of the essence in my situation, as the language chat box only stays on screen for a few seconds.
the auto-resizing, i could live without, and even the 'hide' once another window is clicked, i could live with, really.

Here, I can select "After capture, save and show main window"
You can resize this window to roughly same size proportion of your fixed image size -- this will be remembered. Thumbnail panel and naming etc panel at the bottom can be hidden.

If I click on another window, the SC window will go to the back.
Is that any help? (or have I misunderstood?)

hi, i did try that, but i didn't managed to remove all the buttons, i'll keep trying!
the temp standalone screenshot window was more stripped down.
and yes, clicking on another window sending screenshot to the back, was what i meant.
do you think i need a much smaller program ('tempcap' or something), that can just select a region then display a floating image?
SC is a great program but is it too complex for my intended use?

oh, so when you say it has 3 options, which one is the 'toggle standalone screenshot window' option?

when you say 'mini version of the screenshot' is that the 'toggle standalone screenshot window' option?
if so, then that's the one i like. resizing to image - i could live without. but maybe an 'always on top' choice would be good, or when you click on the browser/game i could gain focus with the screenshot window still open but 'behind' the browser.
is that possible?

hi, thanks for the reply,
oh, ok maybe, i'll have a look. i tried windows picture viewer but it seems too slow, and missed my 'chat box's'
is there a reason why the capture window can't 'pop up' by default?

hi,
thanks for replying. i don't think it's the active window i'm after, it's the 'toggle standalone screenshot window' but i can't find a shortcut for it, i need it to be 'on' by default, so it pops up automatically. and if it could auto resize to fit the image, that would be even better.

(what i'm trying to do is screengrab a chat box from  a game, then type the text into a translator so i can speak in other languages. i don't even need to save the images.)

Screenshot Captor / Standalone screenshot window

« on: August 18, 2019, 07:33 PM »

hi,
i'm not sure if screenshot captor can do this,
i'd like to start with hiding all windows, then using shortcut to select a region then for that capture to pop up in the standalone screenshot window, with the window adjusting to the size of the image. then if i click outside it is hidden until the shortcut is selected again.

i can almost do it, but it doesn't hide after clicking away, or standalone screenshot window doesn't resize to fit capture.

i hope i've explained things properly. i hope someone can help, thanks!

a taskbar button to turn on and off your webcam and mic as most cheap ones don't have a real switch.
maybe it's more tricky than it sounds.

thanks,i'll try it.

i just unchecked 'show matching folders by default' and turned off other search folders in the list.
so now i can just type name in search and off it goes.

and that was easily fixed in 'folder browsing' and 'display options' settings.
(sorry to keep answering myself!)
this is a great app,thanks very much! (just donated a small amount)

sorry,yes it is finding 'nf_midimon',it was hidden.
had to press pagedown.
now need to figure out how to get all results to show without having to press pagedown,and without showing the folders.

thanks,that is working,
is there a way to prevent the folders from showing up in the search,so just the .dll's show?

« on: August 21, 2014, 05:48 AM »

thanks for the help,though i don't want to have to type in '.dll' everytime,only the name of the dll i am searching for.
and only in one location,my vstplugins folder and not to show folders or any other results.
and i need to be able to save that search to taskbar for a one-click search.
i'm finding the options in these apps a bit confusing.

thanks,i just found that,thank you.
yes the 'wildcard' option works!
where do you put the filename you're searching for?
