Automatically save the screenshot to clipboard, disk or launch the editor tool.
Automatically scale the screenshot to a given size.
Use “system” shortcuts to take a screenshot.
Add automatically some “post-effects” to the screenshot (drop shadow, rotation, border, …).
Add annotation items (text, arrows, rectable, ...) to the snapshot.
Can be minimized to system tray and work in background.
Export edited image in multiple formats (PNG, JPG, BMP ...).
Save/Restore edited image in proprietary format.
Send image directly to printer or to web service.
