shutterbug - screen snapshot application

shutterbug

Shutterbug is a simple screen snapshot application inspired by SGI Snapshot.

The user interface of Shutterbug consists of a single, unobstrusive icon. All functions in Shutterbug are invoked by right-clicking on this icon, which will bring up a popup menu. A red rectangle identifies the area of the screen being captured.

The screen capture area is identified by a red rectangle. The capture area can be moved around by right-mouse dragging, or by holding the shift- or control key during left-mouse dragging. The size of the rectangle can be changed by dragging on one of the four sides or on the corners.

The capture area can also be set to a predefined, fixed size. In that case the rectangle can not be resized, but only dragged to a specific position.

To invoke the menu, right-click on the Shutterbug application icon.

Snap
This command snaps a screen shot and brings up the file panel to save the image to file.

Show Lasso
This command hides the red lasso identifying the capture area.

Size
Brings up a submenu with a number of predefined capture area sizes. Selecting Custom will enable arbitrary capture area selection.

Weight
This submenu can be used to change the line width of the capture area lasso rectangle.

Lines inside
Causes the lines to be inside, rather than outside the capture area rectangle. This can be more accurate for small images.
