SYNOPSIS

9       shutterbug

DESCRIPTION

12       Shutterbug  is  a  simple  screen  snapshot application inspired by SGI
13       Snapshot.
14
15       The user interface of Shutterbug consists  of  a  single,  unobstrusive
16       icon.   All  functions  in  Shutterbug are invoked by right-clicking on
17       this icon, which will bring up a popup menu.  A red  rectangle  identi‐
18       fies the area of the screen being captured.

IDENTIFYING THE SCREEN AREA

22       The  screen capture area is identified by a red rectangle.  The capture
23       area can be moved around by right-mouse dragging,  or  by  holding  the
24       shift- or control key during left-mouse dragging.  The size of the rec‐
25       tangle can be changed by dragging on one of the four sides  or  on  the
26       corners.
27
28       The  capture area can also be set to a predefined, fixed size.  In that
29       case the rectangle can not be resized, but only dragged to  a  specific
30       position.
