Focus on action, crop, and framing

Framing sets which part of the screenshot a page shows. The source image is never overwritten, so the full image can be restored at any time.

Focus on a captured action

Action Capture records the point of each accepted click. On a page that has this point, Temposhot can zoom the page around it automatically.

1. Turn on Framing

   Select the page and switch on Framing in the Page Inspector. The switch is described as "Focus on the action area".

2. Pick a level

   Use the minus and plus buttons (Wider framing and Tighter framing) to move between the five levels.

3. Fine-tune if needed

   Select Adjust framing… to preview the crop and change it in the framing editor.

Level	Number	Result
Wide	1	Most surrounding context
Relaxed	2	Some context around the action
Balanced	3	Even mix of context and detail
Close	4	Action area with little context
Tight	5	Exact action area only

In the framing editor, Mode switches between Focus on action and Custom. Focus level changes the level for Focus on action. Select Apply framing to save the result, or Cancel to leave the page as it was.

Adjust framing manually

Use a manual crop for pages without an action point, or when the automatic frame cuts off something important.

1. Open the framing editor

   Press F, choose Adjust framing… from Image actions, or right-click the page thumbnail and choose Adjust framing.

2. Switch to Custom

   Under Mode, select Custom.

3. Set the region

   Drag the frame or its corner handles until the important context is inside. Frame size shows the width and height.

4. Save the crop

   Select Apply framing.

Choose Show full image to remove the crop and show the whole screenshot again. On a page with an Action Capture point, Reset to action rebuilds the automatic framing around that point.

Framed pages show "Framed" in their thumbnail caption in the Pages panel.

Protect sensitive information

Framing is the quickest way to leave out unrelated windows, tabs and notifications. Crop each page to the part the reader needs.

When private details must stay inside the visible area, cover them with Blur (B, Pro). Set Blur strength in the Object Inspector until the text cannot be read.

The free browser tool Image Redaction Tool can also cover regions of a single image.
