Why is left side of screen capture cut off in SolidWorks?

By Don Anneken on 01 Feb 23:21 3 answers 712 views 4 comments

I have noticed that screen captures in SolidWorks, say for tutorials as an example, that the the left side of the screen, in particular, half of the Feature manager, seems to get cut off. This makes it difficult to sometimes get complete understanding from some of the Excellent tutorials the users are posting

    If you use Windows 7 or vista, try snipping tool (under accessories).

    I use an external capture application where you can select the area you want to capture, it can be the active window, workspace, full screen or selection area. Then I simply create a new image from clipboard as SW is not the only application I use for work. For example, IrfanView (freeware) can be very useful, it can make a new image from images captured on your screen and gives a very good control on image size, resolution, etc. Useful in many ways.
