Snipaste可让您捕获单个 UI 组件
Snipaste 使您能够使用其像素级控件的强大功能来(pixel-level control)捕获单个 UI 组件(capture individual UI components)。您可以剪切屏幕的某些部分，然后将其作为浮动窗口粘贴到桌面本身上。此外，您可以使用颜色并将自定义文本放在浮动图像(floating image)上。您有许多选项来编辑图像细节并根据您的意愿对其进行变形。

Snipaste是一个可移植的可执行文件，这意味着您不需要安装它。当您双击可执行文件Snipaste.exe时，它会将自身添加到系统托盘中。它可以使用几个可以配置的热键来调用。默认情况下，您可以按F1 键(F1 key)来截取屏幕的任何部分。
当您将鼠标悬停在屏幕上的不同 UI 元素上时，您可以在一个小窗口中看到缩放(zoomed)视图，该窗口与您的手势一起标记。它还以相应的RGB(RGB)值的形式显示当前色谱。根据您的要求，您可以截断整个屏幕或仅截断其中的一部分。您可以选择要捕获的任何区域并释放鼠标按钮以剪切所选部分。
剪下想要的图像后，您可以使用剪下窗口右下角的各种工具对其进行编辑。画一些形状，在上面写任何东西或使用马克笔和铅笔工具展示你的艺术。
将其粘贴到桌面上的任何位置
准备好所需的片段后，您可以使用组合键Ctrl+W. 它作为一个浮动窗口绘制在桌面上，您可以滑动或移动它。现在您可以将其保存为图像或直接将其复制到剪贴板。此外，您可以添加到一个新组中，以便在其中积累类似的剪辑或使用存储在您 PC 上的其他一些图像文件替换它们。完成后，您可以单击关闭(Close)以摆脱它。
自定义 Snipaste 设置
它是非常有用的工具，Snipaste还提供了广泛的选项以使其成为“你的”(‘yours’)。您可以配置与剪切和粘贴图像相关的多项设置。对于Snipping，您可以更改历史记录中维护的记录数、更改默认遮罩颜色或启用/禁用自动检测 UI 元素或窗口的功能。而(Whereas)对于粘贴(Pasting)任何图像，您可以校准有关缩放、缩放或文本到图像转换等的设置。

Snipaste is a free and powerful tool to take Screenshots on Windows PC
In Windows, you can use the built-in Snipping Tool to capture the entire or selective part of your computer screen. However, it lacks some features which many are looking for. To get better of the situation, you can use various third-party free screen capture software to take screenshots and edit them on the go. Today, we are going to review Snipaste, a powerful and handy screen capture tool that has several interesting features.
Snipaste lets you capture individual UI components
Snipaste enables you to capture individual UI components using the power of its pixel-level control. You can snip some part of the screen and then paste it as a floating window on the desktop itself. Furthermore, you can play with the color and put custom text on the floating image. You get many options to edit the image details and morph it per your wish.
How to snip an image
Snipaste comes as a portable executable which means you don’t need to install it. When you double click the executable file Snipaste.exe, it adds itself to the system tray. It can be invoked using several hotkeys which can be configured as well. By default, you can hit the F1 key to snip any part of your screen.
As you hover around different UI elements on your screen, you can see the zoomed view in a little window that tags along with your gesture. It also displays the current color spectrum in the form of corresponding RGB values. Depending on your requirement, you can snip an entire screen or just a part of it. You can select any area which you want to capture and release the mouse button to snip the selected part.
Once you’ve snipped your intended image, you can edit it using various tools present on the bottom right corner of the snipped window. Draw some shapes, write anything on it or show your artistry using the marker and pencil tool.
Paste it anywhere on the desktop
Once your desired snip is ready, you can paste it anywhere on the desktop using key combination Ctrl+W. It gets painted on the desktop as a floating window which you can slide or move around. Now you can save it as an image or directly copy it to your clipboard. Additionally, you can add to a new group where you want to accumulate similar snips or replace them using some other image files stored on your PC. Once done with it, you can click Close to get rid of it.
Customize Snipaste settings
Much useful the tool it is, Snipaste also offers a wide range of options to make it ‘yours’. You can configure several settings related to snipping and pasting the images. For Snipping, you can change the number of records maintained in the history, change the default masking color or enable/disable the functionality to auto-detect UI elements or windows. Whereas for Pasting any image, you can calibrate the settings regarding scaling, zooming or text to image conversion, etc.
Also, there are specific hotkeys assigned for particular functions. For example, for Snip the default hotkey is F1 while for pasting it is set as F2 by default. You can change these per your wish.
Bottomline
Snipaste is a nifty little tool that can come in handy for those who frequently take screenshots and want more features as add-in support. Give it a try by downloading it from the official website here.
