They could have done this with a menu selection ( being one good place to put it) and with command-line arguments. If, for whatever reason (not the least of which is too many things in the Quick Launch bar), some people still want to start Snipping Tool in standby, M$ could have made it possible, with mind-boggling ease, to give users the choice of opening the program in whatever mode they desire. (Even that weren't the case and one wants to do something other than an immediate capture, simply clicking on the tool's menu bar to do whatever desired (options, change mode) still works with a single click, whether the tool is in capture mode or not.)Ģ. If one uses it frequently and wants it ready to capture in a single click whenever one is logged in, Snipping Tool could be moved to the Quick Launch bar and one click gets it going. E veryone should be happier with the tool starting in capture mode. Two points (and I'll save the better for the latter):ġ. Of course, he thinks he's setting himself up to operate more quickly than he could have under Win7, but he is not. can't help but wonder if it's occurred to him that when starting Snipping Tool in the new configuration (not ready to capture), he's still doing the extra clicks to get it started he's just doing it ahead of time.

I just wished they had more options for this unless you're saying what I'm reading from you that you found a way.Another long-time user and programmer (since 1981), here. So, you're saying that you have it ready without extra clicks, meaning it's ready to snip right away? How did you do that? Trust me, I'm old, lol, and have been working with MS since DOS only days.
