- The new .snagx file format replaces historic platform-specific .snag (Windows) and .snagproj (Mac) formats. Snagx is cross-platform compatible, so individuals and teams who use both Windows and Mac computers can open, edit, and share files with ease!
Cross-Platform Markup Consistency
- When you annotate a capture with callouts, arrows, or other tools on Mac, those annotations now look the same when you open the capture on Windows, and vice versa. Additionally, many tool properties that were offered only on one platform are now available on both Mac and Windows.
- Snagit 2022 on macOS now includes: the ability to adjust the size of arrow ends, advanced shadow controls (shadow offset, blur, opacity, and color), and the ability to group objects on the Canvas.
Video Improvements
- Snagit 2022 features a more stable video engine, better performance, smaller file sizes, improved audio and video syncing, and compatibility with a larger variety of webcams. Snagit Mac also now provides reliable video recovery in the case of a crash on your system, without impacting your recording performance.
Enhanced Tooltips
- Snagit 2022 includes easy-to-understand explainer animations. These video tooltips meet busy users where they are, offering help to improve existing Snagit workflows and opportunities to discover previously overlooked tools.
