The External
menu
An external image can be opened and the following operations performed:
- Cut from external image and edit - this option allows a portion
of an external image to become the current image
- Cut from external image and overlay - this take a portion of an external
image and overlays that image, centered on the current image
- Overlay external image - this take the entire external image and
overlays it onto the current image
- Cut out image from a screen capture
Screen capture
This option is the same as the cut from the external image option except that the
image used is a screen capture of the current screen. When selected IconPainter
will indicate that it is about to hide all it's windows and will then wait 5 seconds
before doing the screen capture. The delay allows you time to display on the screen
what it is you want to capture. After the delay ends the normal IconPainter windows
reappear plus the image cut dialog along with the screen capture image.
