Re: [Framers] Taking and inserting screen captures in FrameMaker2015

If you are looking for a free screen capture program that has lots of
nice features, my favorite is Greenshot. It's free and open source, even
for commercial use.

Re: [Framers] Taking and inserting screen captures in FrameMaker2015

Hi John, 

I just checked and the registry fix from Parrain works, but only on a
newly defined profile (which then appears in "my profiles").
The standard profiles seem to be "immune", i.e. changes will be
discarded. 

(Note that user profiles will get a cryptic key name in the registry,
consisting of 32 alphanumeric characters, and not the name you have
given the profile.) 

I saw another key "DPI", which I also set from 96 (dec) to 300 (dec). As
a result of all this, my profile now produces images with 300 dpi
preset. 

This does not increase the amount of pixels, of course, it will only
change (reduce) the resulting layout size in a DTP program.
Normally, I would use a Photoshop actions batch for this. No need to
change it in Snagit for me. 

Best regards -- Tino H. Haida, Berlin

Using regedit in administrator mode, you can modify your profiles :
- point regedit to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TechSmith\SnagIt\11\Profiles\the desired
profile
- switch the key "ImageUseResDPI" to 0 (zero - that means "don't use the
default 96DPI resolution").
- switch the "ImageXResolution" and "ImageYResolution" keys to the
decimal value you need (in my case "300", so "12c" in hexadecimal).

Re: [Framers] Taking and inserting screen captures in FrameMaker2015

2016-03-31 Thread Syed Zaeem Hosain 
Hmmm, for my captures, this is not an issue -  for me, fixing the resolution 
later is trivial. Assuming I need to do so. 

Screen capture (any tool) always takes the pixels you want (regardless of that 
setting in later versions of SnagIt), so this "setting" is just an 
interpretation of how the pixels should be converted to inches when displayed, 
I suppose.

I guess the main issue in that thread appears to be the slowdown in the 
work-flow, since the file needs to be touched in an image editor to change that 
setting.

Yesterday I tried the registry fix on SnagIt 12 and it didn't work.
I couldn't get the Garth Jones fix to work either.

Re: [Framers] Taking and inserting screen captures in FrameMaker2015

2016-03-31 Thread Monique Semp 
RE: one huge disadvantage - Starting with SnagIt 10, the removed the 
capability to preset the resolution at which you

capture images. There's a thread about it here:
https://feedback.techsmith.com/techsmith/topics/restore_the_global_image_resolution_preference_setting

Actually, the setting *is* in SnagIt 10, but apparently not in SnagIt 11. (I 
didn't know this because I'm still using SnagIt 10, and now know I won't 
want to upgrade!)


Reading further in the techsmith thread, there is a workaround. It seems 
that you can install an older version (by retrieving it form the techsmith 
if you don't still have the install file), use SnagIt 10 to create a profile 
with the 300 dpi (or whatever setting you need), and then use that profile 
with your newer SnagIt. Of course why you'd want to use the newer one is up 
for debate...


And reading really far into the thread, it turns out that there's a registry 
setting that you can use to control this, at least in SnagIt 11. (Look for 
the post from "Parrain", from "2 years ago". And "Garth Jones" pointed to a 
way to get 300 dpi with SnagIt 12. (SnagIt 12 seems to be needed for Windows 
10, for some users?)
