GUNTIS Ideas from COMPUTERWORLD magazine, by Scot Finnie: Image conversion among all major image formats and the capability to select a new default file format from among those image types. A facility that lets you control default options for some file formats, like number of colors and quality/compression levels (as with JPEGs, for example). Automatic, sequentially numbered file naming with user-specifiable root names (such as "OSXLeop_###") and folder-save-to locations. It should also let the user specify the starting number of the file-naming sequence. A capability that lets you optionally hide all but the Apple default desktop icons and other user customizations. User-configurable screen-capture delay with audible and/or visible countdown. This feature is sometimes required to set up and capture open menus, drop-downs, and so on. There should also be an option to include or not include the mouse pointer. Automatic selection of common object elements, such as program window, menu bar, toolbar, icons, the Dock, etc. (Apple's built-in Command-Shift-4-Spacebar key combination does this, but the facility is otherwise very limited). Snap-to selection for parts of objects is also very desirable. Any product that offers only a manual drag-selection tool for parts of the screen doesn't make the cut. Important functionality: A capture-preview window that appears before you save the file, so you can review it and make appropriate alterations. The capability to add basic (and preferably subtle) edge effects, such as rules, blurring, ripples, tear-aways, white borders and so on. The capability to make assisted selections within the preview to save as separate shots. The ability to save named sets of settings (such as file format, image quality, file name and file-save location, and object selection type) that can later be called by the user to suit specific capture needs.
