    Thank you for the tutorial. It was terrific. I was wondering if it is at all possible to have rotating handles as well as sizing handles. I have numbered arrows and many times I need to rotate them and I don’t know how to put on the rotating handles or indeed if that is possible at all.

    cheers

      Hello… Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed the tutorial. Unfortunately, at this time, there is no way to rotate an image on the fly using handles. The Snagit team is aware of all the requests for this feature. So, in the meantime, you can put one of the numbered images on a new, transparent canvas, make it flat, then use the Rotate feature to rotate the image to the degree you desire. Then, save it to a subolder in the Stamps folder as a .png file. Then, when you want to use one of these, just choose it from the stamps gallery. I know this doesn’t really do the trick.. but it’s the best I can come up with! Maybe others will have a different workaround for you. Thanks again!

    Thanks for the nice tutorial! Very clear and complete! Is there a way to point SnagIt to a folder NOT in the Program Files to pull in stamps? We don’t have admin privileges on our computers. Thanks!
