Capture

Improved custom filename

The configuration of a custom filename for screenshots is enhanced, and more options are available.

• Choose "User-defined" and click on the configure button:

• Define your filename pattern with predefined placeholders:

The 2 minutes limit length for animated gif is removed

Animated GIFs should be short and lightweight. That's why we recommend keeping GIFs video under 2 minutes length. However, Screenpresso does not hard limit it anymore.

New "VideoPauseBeforeStop" advanced settings

You can resume the video recording when you stop it. The stop button acts as a pause button, and a second confirmation is needed to finalize the video.

New "SnappingDepth" advanced settings

When you start a capture, moving the mouse over a window selects it. If you set the depth value to 1 you can select the child window of this root window by moving the mouse over it. If you set a value to 2, you can select a child window of this child window, and so on... The default value is 1 but to capture only root windows in one click, you might prefer to set it to 0.

A new What's new? dialog has been added

When a new version is available, the release note is now shown directly in Screenpresso.
