While activated, the following additional useful options apply, and will be shown in a small window as a reminder. Toggle these off using F1 or by un-checking the capture option Show help and zoom area during region capture.

F1: Toggle help text and zoom on/off

Arrow keys: more pointer by one pixel

Shift-Arrows: move pointer by 10 pixels

CTRL-Arrows: move pointer to the capture or image edge

ESC or Right Button: abort operation

Enter or Left Button: accept this position

+: hide/show mouse pointer

X, Y: Lock/Unlock X or Y axis movement

Once the first operational anchor point is established, these tips are added:

-: hide/show rectangle size in pixels

Tab or Home: switch rectangle corner

The points are picked upon release of the left or primary mouse button. Press the left mouse button, hold it down, move out of HyperSnap-DX's window, and then release the button.

This will pick the nearest edge of the image, or a point of the value (0, 0) if you go to the left and top of the HyperSnap-DX window.

Important boundaries.

HyperSnap-DX 5's window does auto-scroll if you try to drag a selection with left mouse button held down beyond the edge of the programs' window. You can also resize the program's window or use the scroll bars to adjust your view and make cropping more convenient without losing your selection. The selection edge markers will reactivate as you move your mouse back into the HyperSnap-DX 5 main window.
