Snipping tool
Suppose, I wanted tocapture imagefrom browser (for example), but it's too long so I have to scroll. Is it possible to capture it by draging the cursor or in any other way?

harakternik,Not with the snipping tool, no. As soon as you activate it, the rest of the screen is inactive.

Hi,
Currently, we cannot do it by using Snipping Tool, you can try to use a third party software.
Such as: How to Capture & Save Screenshots of Webpages

You could try one other option... IE 8 has a magnification function... It allows you to zoom in on a page. It also gives you the option to zoom OUT... Click the little downward arrow next to where it says 100% and select 50% or 75%... snip, save and you can then use another app to enlarge the resulting graphic to it's normal size. Just a thought...

I know about third party software... But I don't want to clog the registry :-) I just wish that Microsoft will bring to the perfection such a wonderful thing as this snipping tool :-) Because it isn't right to use zoom, when (ideally) all you should do (for example) is to press alt/ctrl/shift/whatever and drag the cursor down in order to scroll and capture even very long images :-))) And the whole impression about the system consists of such trifles...
