Auto-split while autoscrolling
« on: September 26, 2011, 08:04 PM »
No autoscrolling screen capture soft has this feature, but I wonder, how difficult it would be to autoscroll and stop at a certain element, save the result to its own image and continue. Like draw a rectangle around the element to identify it and the program would recognize it as a page break. You can't otherwise autoscroll a 100 page document.

This is actually a nice idea. I'll try to add it.  Well I don't know about stopping at a certain element, but it should be possible to have an autoscroll capture mode that captured a new image for each page of scrolling, rather than stitching them together automatically.

Yes, it might work, if the user would be allowed to define the height of a page in pixels. Or something to keep the actual pages in synch. And maybe an option to stop after a certain number of pages to make testing easier.
Really cool that you are taking this into consideration!  :up:
