Area capture lets you select any rectangular region of your screen.

While selecting, a live dimension indicator shows the exact pixel width and height. You can also type exact dimensions in the toolbar before capturing for pixel-perfect screenshots.

Select and capture any region of your screen with pixel precision.

Area Capture

Area Capture (Editor) works just like a regular area capture, but the screenshot opens automatically in the ScreenSnap Pro editor right after capture. This lets you immediately add annotations, backgrounds, and styling without any extra steps.

Use Area Capture (Editor) when you know you want to style or annotate the screenshot right away. For quick captures that go straight to the clipboard or a file, use the standard Area Capture instead.

Capture an area and open it directly in the editor for styling and annotation.

Area Capture (Editor)

This is the main editing workspace you see after opening a capture. The screenshot preview sits in the center on top of a styled background, the floating toolbar above it holds your annotation tools, and the inspector on the right controls the final presentation.

Use the left rail to switch between major areas of the app. In this view, Editor is selected for capture cleanup and annotation, while Cloud gives you quick access to ScreenSnap Pro sharing features.

The floating toolbar is where most markup work happens. From here you can move around the canvas, pick tools like arrow, text, and pen, change color, adjust stroke thickness, and undo or redo edits without leaving the current screen.

The inspector on the right is focused on layout and polish. You can tune padding, roundness, shadow, intensity, inset, aspect ratio, and the background style, then finish with the Copy or Save actions in the top-right corner.

Tour the ScreenSnap Pro editor and learn where to style, annotate, and export each capture.
