    Great Tool with even higher potential

    Updated: Apr 11 2024
    Summary

    I've been using Help&Manual since V3 and can't live without it. The old Impict graphics annotation tool that came with it used a proprietary format and needed a modern replacement.
    SnipSVG lives up to the task already and I'm sure that it will be even more useful in just a few weeks or months. Looking forward to it.

    Positive

    - Vector-based additions like arrows, text etc.
    - Auto-numbering bubbles and other numbered shapes
    - Everything is non-destructive and fully editable when saved as .SNIPX - most effects as .SVG also
    - Speedy addition of similar shapes (Shift-Right Click)
    - Can be used standalone but it's also integrated into Help&Manual
    - Rapid bug-fixing and great support from the developers (V1 was released around Feb. 21st 2024 I think)
    - For Free - the tool doesn't cost a dime

    Negative

    I can't think of one. My previous concerns are already in place in the latest version (workflow streamlining with additional keyboard shortcuts etc.)

    Tried it, immediately loved it and don't want to work without it any more

    Summary

    A a technical author for software documentation I finally found the perfect tool for screen captures and it's for free!

    Positive

    SnipSVG was delivered with a new version of Help&Manual and can also be used indepently. It immediately became my favorite tool for screen captures and editing them.
    It's completely intuitive and has so many helpful extras for annotations, decorations, accentuations and so on, which are easy to apply.
    The results are vector-based images which can also be edited afterwards. Perfect for websites, online help and all tech docs.

    Negative

    I couldn't find anything negative so far and after struggling with screen captures for many years I can fully recommend SnipSVG.
