Tools menu
The Tools menu is where you set up your preferences for Screen Captures and general
IA Album LE behaviors. It also allows you to crop an image, save it in a different
format, send via infrared beaming, and access the main Help contents.
Crop...
• The Crop... command allows you to specify a portion of a file and then save
that portion of the file to a new individual file.
• It also lets you save a file to a different format and/or location. First select the
image you want to crop (in either Thumbnail View or Select View). A
thumbnail image will be shown in the Crop tab after you select Crop... from
the Tools menu (or the Crop icon on the Toolbar).
Crop tab
• In the Crop tab, you can drag your stylus on the image to manually specify a
square/rectangular area, or you can specify values in the X and Y (origin) and
W and H (area) fields. After a Crop region has been defined, you can drag it
around using your stylus if desired. You can also Pan or Zoom In/Out using
the icons in the Crop tab.
• To save the cropped portion as a new file immediately to the same file type as
the original, tap the Crop button. The default file-naming convention
appends an underscore and a "c" ( _c ) prior to the extension, and places it in
the current folder.
Format tab
• To save to a different file type and/or resolution, open the Format tab. You
can save as JPEG, GIF, or Bitmap.
• Depending on which format you choose, Quality and Color choices will also
be available. You can also save the new image at a different resolution if
desired.
Location tab
• To save the file to a different folder, open the Location tab and select the
folder.
• You can also change the filename in this tab prior to tapping the Crop button
to save the image to the new location.
Capture Settings...
The Capture Settings... command on the Tools menu allows you to set any of your
handheld's system buttons to act as a "capture" button. Then by simply pushing the
capture button that you have designated, whatever is currently displayed on your
handheld screen will be saved as an image file.
Initial setup
To set the preferences and attributes that will control the behavior of your Screen
Captures:
1 Tap Capture Settings... on the Tools menu, or its icon on the Toolbar.
