I’m going to tell you right now that I don’t use it to it’s fullest capability, but some of features I commonly use on the editor are the arrows, text boxes, crop, blur and canvas resize. The second main thing I like about Snagit is that the Snagit Editor allows you to do simple graphics editing without needing to purchase an expensive program like Adobe Photoshop or learn the quirks of GIMP.

If you were using Print Screen button and then pasting it into Paint to save the capture or the Windows Snipping Tool you wouldn’t have that luxury. You can see a screen shot of the Editor below:īasically, if you wanted to do a screen capture of content that extended past the bottom of your browser window, on a website for example, you would be able to capture the content that wasn’t currently visible in the Window. This is where you can modify and edit all of the screen captures that you have done.

The other tool that makes up Snagit is the Snagit Editor. I currently have version 10 which is no longer for sale, Snagit 13 is the most recent version they have released and is the only version that is offered for sale.

The actual number will be depend on what version of Snagit you have. You have the actual Snagit tool, a screnshot is above, that you use to capture content on your screen which is called, for example, “Snagit 10”, “Snagit 11”, “Snagit 12”, or “Snagit 13”. Snagit is actually comprised of two different tools. You could also compare it to the Windows Snipping Tool in modern versions of Windows, but again Snagit is so much more than a simple screen capture software.

If you’ve ever used the “Print Screen” button on your computer and then pasted it to Paint, then it’s similar to that except way more advanced. Snagit is a screen capture software that enables to capture items on your screen.
