Using Snagit
Snagit- You'll Love It
Because more and more websites are making it difficult to copy their images, another way to add images to DesignSmart is to use a program called Snagit.
Snagit is a popular graphics program. We learned about it from our clients and we have used it ever since.
One of its most useful features is the ability to do a screen capture and annotate the image you capture.
The Snagit website has great tutorials and videos about how to use their program to capture screenshots, so we won't cover that here.
What we will show is how to get a screen capture from Snagit into DesignSmart because quite honestly we've been using Snagit for years and only discovered this trick recently! This this handy tip, you can skip saving the images to your computer.
Snagit Edit Screen
Below is a screen shot of the Snagit edit screen. In the top area you can annotate the image, but note the thumbnail image on the lower left.
Drag the Thumbnail to DesignSmart
To add a Snagit screen capture to DesignSmart, simply drag the thumbnail image into the image box as shown and it will appear in your item.
