clashes with any defined Web Designer Premium shortcut, you'll be warned with a
message appearing at the bottom of the dialog, but this doesn’t matter if you will have
other windows active when taking the screenshots. Press RESTORE to return to the
previous selected shortcut.
Instead of using a shortcut key to take the screenshot, you can instead use the TIME
option. This is useful in cases where any keyboard activity can change the display you
want to capture, such as a pop-up tooltip which may disappear if you were to press a
key. Select the time option and enter a delay value in seconds. The screenshot will then
be taken for you automatically once the specified period of time has elapsed. The timer
starts as soon as you click the START button.
Pressing the START button closes the Screen capture dialog and activates the system-
wide hotkey. Switch to the window you want to capture and press the chosen key
combination, or wait for the chosen time period to elapse if the timer option was chosen.
The screenshot is taken and inserted into Web Designer Premium or saved to file,
depending on the option chosen. If you selected the “Capture always” option you can
take additional screenshots by pressing the key combination again (this is unavailable
with the timer option). To deactivate the utility if you chose this option, close down Xara
Web Designer Premium to end the session. Alternatively return to the Screenshot dialog,
choose the “once only” option and take one more screenshot.
Coloring photos
With any photo selected just click on the Color Line and choose from the menu to apply a
contone color to any photo. Clicking the white color patch and selecting 'SET CONTONE
LIGHT COLOR' will turn any color photo to be black and white. It's called a contone
because it's a continuous tone from black to white.
