This is used when you want to select a specific area to capture. When you click on Area capture or press (Alt+F1) a window will come up for you to set options for the capture. The most common settings are already set so you can just click ok. After clicking on ok make the item you want to get an area capture of active (bring the item to the front where you can see it) and hit F11 (default) on the keyboard to start the capture. Once the capture has started position the cross hairs where you want to begin the capture then holding down the left mouse button drag to where you want to end the capture and release the left mouse button. The capture will be displayed in Image Explorer Pro.
Most users will use the default settings but there are many options you can set to personalize it to your needs. You can choose and area type (triangle, rectangle, rounded rectangle, ellipse, polygon, and freehand), draw line style, fill pattern, draw cursor, ellipse width, and ellipse height. You can also choose to (check or uncheck) include cursor in captured area, use cross-lines cursor, bitmap with region, show draw cursor, and enable keyboard.
Colors: You can set the colors for the area fill foreground, area fill background, draw polygon/freehand line, cursor position/area size text, cursor position/area size background.
Info Windows Options are for setting the options of the window that shows what you are capturing. You can set the position of X and Y, the width and height of X and Y, and Zoom. Other options are show cursor position, show capture size, show opaque text, show info window, and sensitive info window.
