As previously mentioned I upgraded to Sametime 7.5.1 yesterday to follow along but also because of the update to the screen capture utility which I use a lot. Although the new functionality is nice it falls short of actually replacing manually using SnagIt! that I otherwise use for screen capture. I know that SnagIt! does a lot more, but when I need to capture some part of my screen and send it off I almost always need to highlight or annotate it in some way before sending it off. That being said I like the ability to automatically send the screen capture to chat partner(s) from the annotation window.
I would think that the basic required annotation tools would be:
- Ability to draw basic geometric shapes (circle, square, line) apart from freehand
- Ability to use different colors based on color picker
- Ability to add text
- Ability to add arrows
- Ability to adjust line thinkness
I guess that the above can be consider a feature request… 🙂
Feature request noted!
I second your request! The pencil is a step in the right direction, though!
I’m using sametime 7.5.1. screen capture icon is not display in the UI. any one has any idea about this? if so, help me please…
If my memory serves me correctly I only think it is available when you chat with a Sametime 7.5+ client.
Mikkel is correct – some features only become enabled when 7.5.1 talks to 7.5.1
Sometimes, screen capture tool is not appeared when sametime 7.5+ talks to sametime 7.5+. However, this tool may be appeared when you log off and log on again without exiting the sametime
