1. Remember that the counter for sequential naming starts at 1 each time you quit out and reopen ScreenCaptureX, so if you have images in your target folder already, the first one will be overwritten if you start taking new images. Best to move the old screenshots into a subfolder before starting to take more screen shots. I'll try to do something about this soon. Don't shoot me, okay?
2. On some larger screenshots, you might not see the right hand side of the image when the caption screen comes up. Don't worry, the file will be completely there on the saved image when you open it again after adding the caption and saving. Not sure why this happens, but I'm working on it.
3. Text is sometimes not exactly centered. I'm using an average of how wide the text should be for so many letters. It may vary somewhat with punctuation and spaces and such. Should get it pretty much in the ballpark, though for now. Working on this as well.
4. After saving a caption, the suffix is coming in all caps. I will fix this soon as well.
Keep these in mind as you try this app out. I think you'll find it helpful despite the things I'm working on, so I went ahead and posted the update.
ScreenCaptureX
captures screen as JPEG, PNG, or PICT & adds captions
Version: 1.4
A few notes from the developer... - pbesong
Another helpful hint - keep your monitor resolution at its highest and/or make sure you don't capture a window or section that is too tall if you want to add a caption or else you won't be able to see the text field to add/save the caption to the file. For example, if you monitor resolution is 1024x768, don't try to capture a window that is taller than say 650. Some day I'll make is so you can scroll the picture to add the captioin or something.Reply to This
