I want a far simpler interface with basic editing function and attachments.

If it were up to me they would go the opposite direction as a software company. Broadly speaking, to predict the manner in which I prefer to speak would require far more resources than they would ever allocate. Imagination is not their strong suit – no offense to creative programmers intended. Predictive text, if used, limits the conversation to a box only as big as a programmers imagination and literary ambition.


Unfortunately, it seems to me that the programmers job is made simpler when the human conversation is simpler. Weirdly, if it is in the “recent” list, it will attach without complaint.Īdd onto this the horrible, cluttered interface in Outlook these days (so much white space and other huge elements) that make e-mail navigation a pain on a small screen and I can’t help think that fixing basic issues like these and improving the accessibility of the programs should be a far higher priority than a feature which 99% of people will probably just disable. Thus forcing me to close the spreadsheet, attach it, then re-open it again. I’m also sick of the recent bug in Outlook that won’t let you attach a document to an e-mail if it is open in another window. Quite why the server processing seems to share the same thread as the UI is beyond me. Outlook still loves to hang for several seconds at a time if there’s any issue accessing a mailbox (particularly a problem if you have several mailboxes open, or if your VPN connection temporarily drops). Still, the program could be helpful for people who aren't tech-savvy or want to use a simple screenshot tool.Īm I the only one that wishes that MS would instead focus on fixing some of the more glaring issues with their software before implementing silly new gimmicks like this?

The manual effort of selecting the screen area is not difficult, but unless you time it right, you may find yourself taking more screenshots than required. QuickSnip is a good tool that is very user-friendly. While we are on that topic, the program has absolutely no settings at all, so if you are looking for a screenshot tool that is customizable, this is not it. QuickSnip does not support keyboard shortcuts. This becomes a bigger problem if you want to capture a program's window, because it is not possible with the application. If you draw the box in the wrong size, you'll have to discard it with a right-click, since there is no option to adjust the capture. This can be a bit of bother, because the only way to verify if a screen region has been properly saved, is by manually opening the image.Ĭapturing screenshots with the mouse may be difficult for some users. There is no sound played either if you are used to an audio cue, to indicate the screenshot has been saved. As a matter of fact, no preview of the image is displayed on the screen. If you were expecting an image editor to open after QuickSnip captured the snapshot, you should know that the program doesn't come with one. This is why it is recommended to use a taskbar shortcut. To use it you'll need to open the application again. The main issue with QuickSnip is that it exits immediately after a screenshot has been saved.

In addition to saving it to a file, the program also sends the image to the clipboard, ready for pasting in other programs. There is no way to change it to use a different format. The snapshots taken by QuickSnip are saved in the PNG format. However, it does have way too many options, and that isn't something some users may want to deal with. My personal favorite, ShareX, has it beat in this because it can capture the screenshot and save the image with the press of a single key. This makes it quite faster in terms of saving the media. Is this a faster way than using the good old PrintScreen key? No, but that doesn't save the image automatically, while QuickSnip does. It begins at snip_00000, and is incremented by 1. QuickSnip assigns a new name for every screenshot. You can find the saved images under the "My Pictures\Snips" folder. The application will save the screenshot automatically. Instead, draw a box around the area of the screen that you wish to capture, and let go of the mouse. When you run QuickSnip it places an overlay, which acts as the screen region selector. I suggest pinning it to the taskbar or create a desktop shortcut, you'll see why I recommend this in a moment. It comes in a 40KB archive, that contains a single file which is about 735KB. Don't worry, it's not a command-line tool either.
