Irfanview is my viewer of choice, and pretty much the first app I install

I echo Rene's statement - I have been using it for 
almost 4 years - it's greatest feature for me is the ability to browse graphics 
folders and print really awesome "proof sheets" of large numbers of screenshots 
and other graphics. This is a tremendous aid to me when documenting a 
UI.

RE: Graphics question

2005-11-23 Thread Grant Hogarth
G Cute, Jefro.

What I wanted was 4 pix (T,B,L,R) that I could add to an anchored frame
as needed without having to tweak the underlying image file, as then I
could reuse the same underlying image in different places in the
document.

What I will have to do now is keep a separate version of each edited
image (plus the master) in my picture folder -- probably about a 30%
increase in the number of files (already over 700) that I have to
track/maintain.

This is true if I use Snagit, Photoshop, or any other editing app.
If I save the Master as a PSD, I can use layers, but I then have to
recreate the layers for each master.
(I know, create/save a blank image with the four fade-out layers, and
then add the screencap as a base layer.  That is yet another pair of
steps (the images are not all the same size/dimensions, so there is
creation, then resizing, then adjusting focus/visible layers.)

Sub-optimal, but that seems to be the way of the world.

Scripting only works if the hidden/revealed areas are the same in each
image -- which is not true.

 Doing it in Photoshop IS saving time  brain strain.  :)

 Yes,
 Snagit offers excellent batch processes.
 (also a satisfied customer!)
