Ashampoo Snap 12 includes a completely new capture mode–and you'll love it! The program comes with a "magic eye", a semicircle-shaped menu located at the edge of the screen that provides instant access to all essential Snap features. You'll find the multi-purpose capture tool to capture entire screens or rectangular, and scrolling, sections right in its center! The smoothly animated interface makes it also easy to reach additional functions and settings and provides an ease of use never before seen in a Snap program–let alone any other screenshot tool for Windows!
