Tab Bar (7)

Application unlike any other screen capturing tools supports multi-tabbed interface. User can have the same experience as browser without requiring them to open one image (This is a feature unique to GetPixit and currently not supported in any other screen capturing tool. Tab Bar supports multi-tabbed interface, allowing the user to open multiple images at the same time.)

User can have the same experience as browser without requiring them to open one image at a time to review the content. User can drag and drop, arrange, rename, duplicate, copy the tabs. The maximum tab limit can be adjusted in user preferences. Any opened document not visible in the tab-row can be viewed in tab drop down.

Please see the tab bar options in the following screenshots:
