Screen Drawing

Post by Trader ??? »

Pleasure speaking with you this morning...,, but, I forgot to ask what drawing tools is Charlie using to draw on his charts in the mogs?
Or, do you know of another way to do this that I may already have, but, do not know it yet? R.M.

I assume you mean the screen-draw, with the moving cursor used as a pen, and not the regular chart annotation in TS.

This is a feature of Camtasia, the sceen-capture and movie-making software. You wouldn't have it normally, as it runs a couple of hundred bucks and is used only for making movies. Charlie and I use it a lot in the work and so we're very familiar with it...

Techsmith makes that software, but they also make snagit, which is a static screen capture software, and has similar screen-draw capabilities, but these (lke camtasia) require you to make a screenshot of the screen before you can make the drawing.

Not other great possibilities since to do this kind of removable screen draw you have to capture the screen first, etc.
