Quoted from Google Groups for TimeSnapper by jedatu:
First of all, thank you! I think TimeSnapper is fantastic.
To save on disk space I run it on the slow side (1 snapshot every 5
minutes). Sometimes I would like insert a screenshot manually, rather
than "wait" for the automatic snapshot. If I could hit a key
combination and inject a screenshot into the current cadence, that
would be excellent.
This was implemented in v. 2.0 of TimeSnapper Professional and it works like this:
You hit [Windows]-S to bring up the shortcut form and press M. That will insert a snapshot onto the timeline when you want to force it in cases like you suggest.
BTW, we have a lot of features to save on disk space like:
-
Idle detection (stop taking screenshots when idle, configurable)
-
[Pro] Filters (don't take snapshots of certain programs or dialogs with a specific caption - wildcards supported)
-
Only take screenshot of active dialog, the whole screen or all screens (I normally just snap the active dialog, saves space and the day browser is even snappier)
-
Identical image detection
-
Resolution and different image formats
-
Automatic Archiving based on either (or both)
-
maximum space allowed
-
image age
[Pro] The shortcut form is one of my favorite features and probably not well known. It allows almost total control over TimeSnapper through the keyboard. To activate it, use [Windows]-S (this will be made configurable in later versions)
Best regards,
Atli
