| Property Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Capture Delay (ms) | This is the delay between a selection of a capture operation and the actual capture. Depending on the type of the hardware and graphics card, this delay may need to be increased or decreased. A minimum of 300 ms is required. This delay helps to close the main application window before the screen is captured. |
| Show Magnifier | This is set to true by default. Magnifier shows the magnified image around the cursor for selecting the accurate location. Sometimes, it overlaps with the screen and may not be that useful. It can be disabled by deselecting this flag. |
| Capture Mouse Pointer | This setting helps to capture cursor as part of the screen capture. If clean screenshots are required without a cursor, this can be deselected. |
| Display for Full screen Capture | If there are multiple monitors connected to the system, the primary display is set to the working display using Windows display settings. However, sometimes, while working on the main display, fullscreen needs to be captured on the secondary display. This setting helps to override Windows primary display setting. While working on the main display, other displays can be captured in the full screen. |
| Auto-Clipboard Copy | It is set by default. All images captured in the application are automatically copied to Clipboard. This can be disabled if there is a performance issue with copying large images to the clipboard. |
| New Image Format | In addition to capturing screens, a new image can be created in the application using File→ New Image or using The new Image Icon button, |
| Default New Capture ZoomWhen a screenshot is captured, the selected zoom is set to this value. If the image can completely fit in the display area, 100% zoom is used else BestFit zoom is selected.Format | Specified image format is used to capture a new screenshot |
| Timed Capture Delay (Sec) | This is the count down counter delay setting. A timer will count down to the value specified by this parameter. By default value is set as 10 seconds. |
| Continuous Capture | Capture Format: By default capture format is set to Jpeg. It is recommended as Jpeg format takes less space as the continuous captures take several screen captures. This will help to reduce disk space usage. Maximum Limit:If an automated capture is set, this setting helps to limit continuous capture by terminating after a set number of captures. Duplicate Difference(%): If successive captures don't differ by this percentage when compared, they are considered as duplicates. For webinars, a 5% setting is a good value. If the video is being captured, it is better to set a higher value. |
| New Image Default Size | When a new image operation is performed, a new image with a white background is created. Depending on this parameter, the default screen is either created with the width and height settings in this section or obtains them dynamically based on the application display window size. Auto Size New Image: If selected/checked, the new image is auto-sized based on the application display area. New Image Default Width: The default width of the new image. New Image Default Height: Default height of the new image. |
| Scrolling Capture | Scrolling capture parameters help to control the scrolling window capture. Only vertical scrolling is supported. Capture Format: By default, the capture format is set to Jpeg. It is recommended as Jpeg format takes less space as the scrolling capture tends to take large-sized captures depending on the page/window size. This will help to reduce disk space usage. Capture Delay: Delay in successive captures. This delay helps to have the browser or window to render all UI elements to render properly. Some webpages take time to render dynamic elements. In faster systems, this value can be reduced to 500 ms. Remove Common Content: Web pages and windows tend to have a common left, top, right, and bottom content and only section of the screen changes when the page is scrolled with Page Down event. This flag helps to remove common content, thus re-creating the page accurately. This property is selected by default. |
| Video Capture Settings | Video capture global settings panel opens when the Video Capture Settings button is clicked. This provides comprehensive video setting options. Usually, this is not required for normal screen recording use cases. As much as possible, please don't try to change video capture parameters without fully understanding the impact on video recording quality. |
