Example #1: Capture Image

• Download and save the setup package, then run to install. To run, you can press Windows + E to open Windows Explorer, then locate the downloaded file and double-click on it.

• After installing, run ScreenHunter 7 Pro from the Windows Start menu, or the icon on your desktop.

Step #2: Using the capture tab

You can pick a hotkey to start

A hotkey is a keyboard shortcut that allows you to capture quicker. F6 is ScreenHunter’s default image capture hotkey; however, you can choose any key combination or a single key as your hotkey. You can always click the Capture Now button to capture.

In this example, we selected the Rectangular area in the Screen group and changed the settings by clicking the button on the right.

In the Add group, select Cursor.

Step #3: Choose Where to Save Your Capture: "Save Image"

• In this example, we went to the Save Image tab, and selected Clipboard to copy the capture to the Windows Clipboard, and selected Editor so we can edit the capture directly after.
• In the Image Files group, select PNG to save as a PNG file.
• Selecting Automatic for the filename creates an automatic name for the file. To change the format, click the filename button to the right.

Step #4: Capture

• To capture, click Capture Now, which is the camera button at the top
  - or
  Press your hotkey on your keyboard, F6 in this case, to capture immediately.
  
  
• Click and hold down the mouse button, then drag to select an area on screen. Release the mouse button to capture.
  
• If you have selected the Adjust feature on the Rectangular Area Settings dialog, the selected area is then highlighted. You can use your mouse or arrow keys to adjust the size of the area and click the camera button to capture an image. Also, you can press Enter or the Space bar on your keyboard to capture.

To skip this step, you can do the following:

To Cancel

Press the Esc key or right-click the mouse button at any time to cancel. In the Adjust mode, you can click the cancel button on screen to cancel.

Example #2: Record Video

Recording a video uses many similar settings and operations as capturing an image.

Step #1 & #2 are the same as Capturing an Image.

Step #3: Choose Where to Save Video: "Save Video”

• In this example, on the Save Video tab, check Sound to record audio in your video, and choose a Quality and your specific Frame rate.
• In the Video File group, check MP4 to save as an MPEG-4 file.
• Select Automatic for the filename and click the filename button to the right if you want to change the format.

Step #4: Record

• Click Record Now to record, which is the video button at the top.
  - or -
  Press your hotkey on your keyboard, F8 by default, to start
  recording.
  
  
  
• Press the left mouse button down and drag to select an area on the screen, then release the mouse button.
  
• If you have selected the Adjust feature on the Rectangular Area Capture Settings dialog, by releasing your mouse, the selected area is then highlighted. You can use your mouse or arrow keys to adjust the size of the area and click the video button to start recording.
   
  
  
  To Stop
  When recording has started, the Record Now button will be changed to a Stop button.
  
  You can click it to stop, or you can press the stop hotkey or Esc to stop.
  When recording, the flashing indicator can be shown and you may click the Stop button at the bottom to stop.
  

Step #5 is the same as Capture Image.
