How to download Snip & Sketch: What you can do with it
Snip & Sketch is essentially an updated version of the Windows Vista Snipping Tool. It offers a 3-second or 10-second delay when you capture a snip (screenshot), so you can access context menus and objects that disappear after another item is clicked on. You can adjust your delay time by selecting the tool next to the New button and selecting your time.
During the delay, you can click the toolbar at the top of your screen to select a size mode for your screenshot, such as rectangular or freeform, select the area of the screen that you want to capture, and then wait for the delay to finish.
After that point, Snip & Sketch will automatically activate without you having to click it again, and the objects and context menus will not disappear from that point forward.
