TimeSnapper Options

The TimeSnapper Options dialog is where you can fine tune the nitty gritty details of everything. See below for the details of each tab.

Image quality

Screens to capture

You can pick which screen to capture or capture them all. Another nice option, e.g. if you are short on space, is to capture just the active application

Quality

File type

TimeSnapper supports saving the images in multiple different image formats:

• .png (usually best if you don't want any loss in quality and for maximum OCR efficiency)
• .jpg (usually best if you want to keep your images small, but does loose some quality)
• .gif
• .bmp
• .tiff

Resolution

Controls how big (heigh and width) the screenshot will be which in turn affects the size of the underlying file.

Quality

This can only be changed when the file type is .jpg. This controls the level of compression and the image quality. This gives excellent control over the image size.

Preview

The preview and the size indication is just to give an idea about how the screenshot will look like and how much space it will take. Actual size will vary depending on the complexity of the underlying screenshot.
