Snagit 12 brings the ability to cut videos, and Editor UI gets a refresh
Video trimming– "The new ability to trim video in Snagit makes it dead simple to remove ums, ahs, coughs, or dead space from the beginning, middle, end…or any small mistakes you want to trim out. After making a video capture, just drag the green and red triangles to select the part you want to remove, then click Cut." TechSmith’s Danier Foster said in a blog post.
TechSmith has made new style for capture which is not good, unlike to previous versions when you capture something, you’re now presented with options to grab the image or video which is not intuitive for the user.

To keep the focus on captured images or videos, Snagit Editor has been redesigned, "the darker background and more muted icons keep the focus on your content, making it even easier to get your work done".
Snagit no longer supports Windows XP and Vista. Text capture mode, one of the profiles existed in earlier versions has been removed from this version.
One click has been changed to capture window, ‘provides immediate, single click access to all capture profiles as well as the new capture workflow’.

The “completely redesigned editor” illustrated on the TechSmith website does not appear in the product… even when the previous version is uninstalled and the new one installed.
I contacted tech support and received an incoherent reply. The “completely redesigned editor” is illustrated on their website… and they were not able to tell me how to make it appear in my SnagIt 12.
TechSmith needs to understand that selling vaporware is fraud.
Using SnagIt 11, it works with VISTA and I don’t want to chance messing that up with version 12.
Thanks for sharing your opinion MD Cook.
