Capture Window


Main window


Capture Window is used to capture all or part of the display screen as an image. The captured image may be saved to the clipboard and/or a file, and it may be previewed and edited before it's saved.

The online User Guide is here.

Installation

Capture Window runs on Windows 98 and up, though it appears Ctrl-PrtSc doesn't work on Win98.

For end-users: (non-developers)

  1. Open the Capture Window setup program. This will install Capture Window - you can choose where to install the program. (The default is 'C:\Program Files\Capture Window'.)
  2. Open the Microsoft Windows GDI+ setup program only if you are NOT running Windows XP. If you are running under Windows XP, skip this step since Windows GDI+ runtime files are already there. Note that this is a Microsoft site and your browser may be redirected to another page, so give it a few seconds. Look for "GDI+ RTM" - that page has the file (gdiplus_dnld.exe) to download. When prompted to install, click "Browse" and choose your Windows directory (e.g., C:\Windows). If you're not sure what your Windows directory is, choose the folder where you installed Capture Window.
For Dolphin Smalltalk developers,
  1. Download the Capture Window package.
  2. Download some supporting packages.
  3. Download the Gdiplus (GDI+) packages.
  4. Windows GDI+ runtime files are needed - see above.
