Screenshotz is a quick and simple to use screenshot grabber+manager with integrated crop feature

[more features down below]

Download: - [exe] / [jar] from [ScreenshotZ-v1.3 Release Page]

or from [MediaFire Folder]

-> or clone git and compile using maven

To launch from .exe you MUST run it as administrator or you will get the following error message:

To do so [on Windows10]: go to the file settings - Compatibility tab - Run this program as administrator

:fullmoon: Running .jar as Administrator perform better but _isn’t mandatory

To do it you need to open CMD as administrator and go to the location of the jar and run it with java -jar

CMD input example:

    G: ---> dir HDD/Downloads/Opera ---> java -jar ScreenshotZ-v1.3.jar

ScreenshotZ App Features:

App launch directly to system tray

Option to change default screenshot directory

Option to add a Custom Keybind (Save a combination of 1-3 keys) [Does not replace PrtScn button]

When PrintScreen is pressed - it will always save to screenshot directory

v1.1 added Option to launch Crop UI on Custom Keybind and/or PrtScn

Cropped picture will be automatically be in your clipboard for easy sharing

v1.2 added more Crop Options (Save Original , Exit UI onCrop)

App save settings to MyUser/.ScreenshotZ/config.XML

Default screenshot directory is MyUser/.ScreenshotZ/Screenshots (Default 2nd keybind is null)

To show some debugging: run openWithDebug.bat from same directory as jar OR start program from CMD

To add/delete Startup rule run the corresponding bat as Administrator from the same directory as ScreenshotZ-v1.3.exe

ProTip: you can press right click to cancel crop (Unnecessary if Exit UI onCrop option is disabled)

You can use some Command Line Arguments to take screenshots/+crop them without running the whole program:

• %arg [-capture] to directly capture screenshot to saved/default directory

• add %arg [-crop] on top of it to also launch crop UI

  for example in cmd:

     java -jar ScreenshotZ-v1.3.jar -capture -crop

  (App will just take screenshot without launching main thread)

  following this procedure you can bind the core functionality of the program to pretty much anything

  for example: add to explorer.exe context menu the option to instantly crop [TODO will upload reg files for that]

Java classes at src/main/java/core

• [TrayApp] is the main driver class

• [SimpleProperties] is a class that use enums for easy access to settings

• [Utils] are methods that were part of the main class but got refactored out for readability

• [GetKeybind] is the GUI that gets the custom keybind option

• [CropImage] is the crop GUI that is created using [ImagePanel] and uses [TransferableImage] to send to clipboard

Startup Rule Instructions: (Adds startup rule to windows task scheduler)

• Grab [addStartupRule.bat] And
  [deleteStartupRule.bat]
  from the links attached or Tools.zip from the release page

• Put the bat in same dir as ScreenshotZ-v1.3.exe (rule is for this exact name - can be changed in .bat)

• Then run the addStartupRule.bat as admin

• to uninstall run deleteStartupRule.bat as admin and press Y

• (the exe needs to have admin right enabled in the option as shown above)
