I need to know how can i auto save selected snip area
« on: August 28, 2023, 10:05 PM »
Hi All,

I have a PDF file and i am setting its zoom to one page.
Now i need to auto take snapshot of this page only not the entire screen with a any keyboard shortcut, and if i move to the next page i just press this keyboard shortcut and the snapshot is taken and auto saved and so on for the remaining pages.

Hope that one expert could help me. Thanks a lot in advance.

Best regards,
Abbas

Screenshot Captor was made for things like this.  You can set a hotkey to do "Grab repeat last size+position" so that your first capture is a selection of the area on the screen, and after that just hit the hotkey to recapture from the same area on screen.  And you just need to tell screenshot captor to save each capture without popping-up the post-capture dialog and it will just stay in the background after each capture and auto save them.
