Hi dangerus1

Thanks for your response.

I think maybe I haven't put my question very well.

I do get a dropbox with New, when I first open Snipping Tool but this is to select what type of border is wanted for the capture, ie draw it free hand, a rectangle, the whole window or whole screen.

What I would like to be able to do is to draw straight lines, proper circles, arrows etc when annotating the capture. When I do this using my mouse, my lines are not very straight.

I have seen in other places, mainly another forum, where the arrow, or place on the capture has a very square line around, not wiggly like I manage.

Perhaps these people have a touch pad and can use a ruler!!!

I've done another capture and drawn on it. You will see how my lines aren't very straight. The border of the capture is not a problem, as used the setting for rectangular capture.

Another capture

Again, thanks for all suggestions.

Cheers

Hi Chronus

Thanks for this suggestion. I think this is what I will go with when I want to mark on a Snipped piece. It's a good work-around. Maybe, one day, MS will add such features to Snipping Tool, or come up with an equivalent? I won't hold my breath though.

So, this is what I can now achieve, using Snipping tool and then put into Paint.

This is my achievement

Thanks again, Chronus, dangerus1 and compumac. I'm very grateful for all your help and suggestions

Cheers

Thanks again, Chronus I'm pleased with the outcome I've just now remembered to mark at solved too!!! Cheers
