austegard 1 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 This is related to http://discussion.evernote.com/topic/46301-timed-screen-capture-on-second-display-not-working/ but is not a second screen issue - the Timed Crosshair Snapshot simply does not work on Mavericks (Skich Version 2.7.2 (263461))- the crosshairs appear immediately, no matter what the delay setting is.

TropicalFool 0 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I'm having the same problem with Yosemite. Anyone there, Evernote??? Link to comment
LilKim 0 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I'm having this issue as well... I'm on Yosemite 10.10.4 and reinstalled (from both the website and the app store) Skitch 2.7.8 (264008). I rely on this feature a lot for drop downs and hover menus. Any suggestions with this? Link to comment
Morgon 1 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 This needs to be addressed. Can kgg or someone else from the Evernote/Skitch team please provide some sort of comment or update? Link to comment
kgg 75 Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Thanks for bringing this to my attention, @Morgon. I didn't receive a notification of this and just stumbled upon this post today. Please feel free to direct message me in the future. I'm not able to reproduce this issue. For those of you experiencing this, after selecting an area with the crosshairs, what happens? Does it immediately take a screenshot of the selected area or does the app become non-responsive? Link to comment
Morgon 1 Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Thank you very much for responding. I can't speak for others, but for me, it immediately takes a snapshot of the window I'm targeting without counting down. If I drag a selection rectangle, I do get the countdown timer, but I could swear Skitch used to take timed snapshots when clicking to target the active window; that's the part that isn't working.

kgg 75 Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 @Morgon, Thanks for clarifying. It sounds like you might be thinking of the Menu Snapshot or Window Snapshot options. You can find these under "Capture" on the top menu bar. Let me know if this doesn't help! Link to comment
Morgon 1 Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Menu Snapshot: This seems to be for local menus. A timed window screenshot is helpful for UI that have hover-state, such as dynamic JS/HTML menus or other popups. Window Snapshot: This seems to be the same as single-clicking a window in 'Screen Snap' mode, except with an explicit prompt. It does not seem to offer a countdown. I *am* looking for a "Window Snapshot" with a countdown mode, but since Screen Snap mirrors Window Snapshot, Timed Screen Snap should offer the same. Again, I distinctly remember this option being in Skitch a few years ago... it's possible I've dreamed it up, but it should definitely be there all the same. Link to comment
kgg 75 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 @Morgon, Ah, thanks for clarifying and you are not dreaming; this was a feature in Skitch Version 1 but was removed in Version 2. I went ahead and passed your comments along to our development team. I hope this helps! Link to comment
bombasticb 0 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 I have also experienced this Problem on MacBook Air on MacOS Sierra v10.12.6- One of the fundamentals of any screen grab tool is to capture drop downs and the like I've come to a complete halt now on an important software training document. Developers - please contact me as I have worked for the last 20 years on the Interactive Whiteboard and Touchscreen market place and can tell you about some fundamental tools you are missing. It would be useful for example to have a select tool built into the tool bar. I'll explain why when you get in touch. Meanwhile, I'm going to have to find another tool that will meet requirements!
