I think Garry is referring to Snapper regarding the location overlay.

Hi John

Snapper does....it can be turned off if you remember...but I screenshots for me are to show my latest work and I was too busy to remember.

But I personally would only put caption when I want and would use airport names rather than codes.

Something like "Cruising with Heathrow just visible in the background"

Rather than "2.5 miles south of EGLL"

So basically I never want auto captions......so that was thrown off

Sounds very much like horses for courses me thinks

That function DOES default to ON but if you have dual monitors.. the info will show on the 2nd monitor so if you forget to turn it off, it will not ruin your screenie

Thanks for clearing that up guys... in the meantime I'll off to try a certain shamelessly plugged application

Used the software Dan, is it possible to increase the quality of the jpegs?

As it works like your original Print Screen, it only does what you tell it to do. It only eliminates the need for

1. pausing FS (or any other application for that sake)
2. opening MS Paint
3. paste the screenshot in and
4. save it.

It depends on your screen-size ... so same resolution/quality as your screen.

If you have a 1600x1200 setting the jpg will be 1600x1200 no more no less. So in that matter it is just a dumb piece of software.

All editing has to be done elsewhere.
