ShareX is a Capture the screen, save the images to different formats,
record video, generate GIF animations, upload them online, make photo
adjustments, or apply watermarks automatically. ShareX is a feature-rich
and powerful screenshot grabbing tool for Windows users. Honestly, it’s
one the most impressive graphic capturing tools we’ve come across on
Softpedia in the freeware section. It’s open-source and filled with
numerous configuration settings to help you upload the images online,
execute automatic post-grabbing actions, making image adjustments,
applying watermarks, and a lot more.
Free and open-source snapshot grabber Firstly, you can make a clean
and rapid installation with ShareX, thanks to the fact that it doesn’t
bundle third-party components. It creates an icon in the system tray at
startup for quick access, allowing you to rapidly capture the screen in
several ways as well as bring up the main window for tinkering with
settings.
Manual or automatic capturing mode
It is possible to capture the full screen, active window, monitor,
rectangle, rounded rectangle, ellipse, triangle, diamond, polygon, free
hand and last region, as well as to start a recording session and save
the footage as a video or a GIF animations.
An automatic image capturing mode can be enabled for those times when
you plan to leave the workstation unattended while indirectly keeping
an eye on its activity. You can specify the repeat time, select a region
or full screen, as well as set it to automatically minimize to the
system tray area and to wait until the uploads are complete.
Copy, save, adjust, enhance, and upload grabbed photos
As far as post-capturing actions go, you can resize images, add
watermarks and captions, borders or shadows, print pictures or copy them
to the Clipboard, save them to a preferred file type on the disk (e.g.
PNG, JPG), as well as upload them and specify the host. Here, the beauty
is that you can select multiple actions to take into account
simultaneously and automatically. For instance, you can save the image
to file, copy it the Clipboard, and upload it on a server at the same
time.
Once the pictures are uploaded, you can use a URL shortener, post the
link to a social networking platform, or send it via email. ShareX
offers support for multiple hosts when it comes to the image uploader
(e.g. Imgur.com, Pastebin.com, Dropbox.com), text uploader (e.g.
Pastebin.com, Pastee.org), file uploader (e.g. Google Drive, FTP server,
shared folder) and URL shortener (e.g. Bit.ly, Goo.gl).
Special emphasis is put on hotkeys configuration, as you can add key
combinations to basically anything, whether we’re talking about
uploading Clipboard contents, recording the screen, or capturing an
active window. Other settings focus on playing sound after a capture is
made, saving task info to history, adjusting quality, resizing pictures
and applying effects, among many others.
