As with previous versions of Snagit, you can capture specific regions, windows, a full screen, scrolling windows, menus, entire Web pages, and videos. Pretty much whatever you see on your screen, you can grab. It includes many options, such as a capture timer and the ability to choose whether to include cursors. And there are plenty of editing tools as well, notably tools for annotating screen captures.

One returning feature I especially like is the time-saving "All-in-One Capture" feature . Rather than setting up the type of capture (full-screen Web page, window, and so on) in advance, you can instead use the "All-in-One Capture" hotkey or icon, and then decide on the fly what to grab.Another perennial favorite feature is Snagit's "transparency," which lets you capture and use graphics without their background colors so you can blended them more easily into your projects.

That's not to say that everything is perfect with Snagit 11. It records video in the MP-4 format, which although it is a common standard, does not play in Windows Media Player.

Still, that's a minor fault. Snagit is still the screen capture program to get. And if you already have a previous version of Snagit, it's well worth the upgrade.
