Capturing
Meanwhile, I got some email asking how to capture on Windows 8 and that is what I’m sharing next. This latest screen capture tool is made compatible for touch screens of tablets, Smartphone, and other gadgets though you can still use your keyboards and mouse.
Take note that the utilities and applications found in your start screen can lose it focus when you hove away from the screen. If you wish to improve your experience, you can check for hotkeys and setting up. Go here to learn capturing on Windows 8 using your hotkeys.
Adding to the Taskbar or Start Screen
If you wish to access Snagit fast, you can also work on customizing the apps to appear in your taskbar or start screen. All you need to do is to right click on the software from your applications list, and then pin it to start. Otherwise, you can add the software in your taskbar by right clicking your software from your apps list, and then choose to pin on your taskbar.
