@MilesAhead: thanks for the feedback. it seems that the WinX series doesn't really add much to the already crowded field of video converter suites.

Screenshot Captor / Re: How to capture window client area

« Last post by lanux128 on February 21, 2011, 06:55 AM »

I really like Screenshot Captor but am missing a capture mode. Or maybe I just can't find it.
It's about capturing the window client/content area, i.e. without borders, menues etc.

-LasseT (February 21, 2011, 03:11 AM)

you will have to enable redbox mode to capture those. refer screenshot below to see how it can be enabled.

i was quite happy with FlashFolder on WinXP, but it is not compatible with Win7 so had to change to Direct Folders, mainly due to its click-switch function.
