TWAIN is a standard software interface that allows applications to communicate with a digital imaging device. SnagIt
allows selection of a TWAIN device such as a scanner or camera as the capture source for images. This Input option
allows users to automatically specify the size, shape, direction, shade, and other processing options of images as
they are transferred from the devices to the PC.

Capture windows bigger than the screen. Like Auto Scroll, Extended Window Capture captures more than is visible
on your screen. Extended window capture captures the window frame, Auto Scroll does not. Resize the window to
capture a size much larger than the screen.
If the window you want to capture is not resizable with the mouse, you cannot enter new resize dimensions. For
example, a maximized window is not resizable.
Options apply to Image capture mode. Available on Windows XP and Vista only.

DESCRIPTION
Use default capture size
To set a fixed resize amount when resizing windows before capture, place a check mark
in the Use default capture size box. Leave the box empty if you do not want the window
to resize. Use this feature if you know exactly how much to resize a window to capture the
necessary contents.
Width, Height
Enter the Width and Height in pixels.
You must change Width and Height, either in the default capture size or interactively
during preview, to get all of the window contents.
Show extended window
capture preview
Open the Capture Preview window before a capture. This can help you set the capture
dimensions.
