We like the new Snipping Tool or should that be Snipping App from Microsoft. Quite handy if you need to rattle off a number of snips. The default filename has been amended from ‘CAPTURE’ to a datetime-stamped format of ‘snip_YYYYMMDDhhmmss’. Needless to say, the usual options are available, including ‘Save’ with multiple file type options – png, jpg, gif and bmp. We’ll look at the Snip Editor tools in more detail in another post as there are quite a few. In the editor you can, highlight areas of the image, draw on the image, even create a video with audio whilst drawing on the image, great for tutorials etc. On releasing the cross-hair icon disappears and the Snip Editor window is opened. To start your snip, simply click and hold, then drag and release to the highlight your desired snip image. If you are running multiple monitors, then the Snip app highlights the current screen by slightly greying out the other monitors as you move the mouse around, yet you can snip across multiple displays. It will automatically dock to the edge of a display (and hide itself) or can be left, fully open, in the middle of a display and will remain ‘Always-on-top’ as you switch between windows. Quite handy if you just want a simple screen shot.īy default, Snip starts out docked to the top of your main monitor, but it can be dragged to anywhere on your display.

a full screen shot without the taskbar or just the taskbar depending on which of the two areas the mouse is in. Also a quick click on the mouse, without dragging, will capture the current area the mouse is in, i.e. During a snip, the app appears to split the screen into two distinct areas, the main window and taskbar. Moving the crosshair around the screen, the underlying image will be expanded in the viewfinder to allow very accurate snipping. To cancel your snip simply press the escape key. The first image is the Capture option and clicking on this changes the mouse cursor to a crosshair-style icon with a viewfinder. To view Snip’s options simply hover over the rectangle Once started, the app is displayed at the top of the screen as a discreet thin black rectangle. Simply click on the shortcut to start the app. Snip creates it’s own folder in your Start Menu containing a shortcut for the app.

The download file is approximately 2MB and installation of Snip is pretty quick – no reboot required. You can download Snip (and read more about it) from the Snip web page on the Microsoft Office Mix website.

Snip extends the functionality of the standard Windows snipping tool and has been given a more modern ‘app’ feel to its user interface.
One of those experimental projects is a snipping tool app called ‘Snip’. Microsoft has a new development area entitled Microsoft Garage, which is an outlet for experimental projects.
