Flash-It is a shareware screen-capture utility. Flash-It defines up to five screen-capture key combinations (called HotKeys). Each HotKey performs one of the following functions:
* Captures a portion of the screen image to the Clipboard.
* Leaves the captured image in the Clipboard or saves it to a PICT-based disk file or to the Scrapbook or sends it to the printer.
* Lets you choose the destination of the image on the fly.
Flash-It works even while menus are being displayed. It can capture only the frontmost window (or alert/dialog box) or only the displayed menu; if you want, you can capture the pointer (or cursor) as part of the image. Flash-It can scale up or down the captured image from 5 to 3200 percent, in 5 percent steps, works with multiple monitors, and lets you specify the document creator for the PICT-based disk files.
What you need
System 6.0.3 or later (6.0.5 or later is recommended).
