TOPIC: Idea to speed up photos even more!

Does it work with the TV or radio turned up?....
Plus I have a hard time talking with food in my mouth...haha.
Seriously you were correct that it erodes your typing skills and that is a bad thing now that we all use many different devises during the day.
My previous comment was made while hitting Dunkin Donuts for instance.

LOL, I have the microphone hot keyed and usually remember to turn it off when it's not needed.
I say usually because sometimes I forget and find it typing away a phone conversation or trying to
make sense out of my dogs barking and howling.  : The best thing about using Dragon is that it can actually spell!
My spelling isn't that bad but I have a few bad typing habits like using "teh" instead of "the" that I'm finding very hard to break.

Good thing about the spelling issue is after about 1,000 reports you already know all the common words.
Plus Active words has auto correct.(counterpoint)

Dana, you can add text onto a pic as many times as you want and do arrows in HIP. What does snagit add for annotations that HIP doesnt?

Hi Dom,
Part of the reason I use it SnagIt Editor is familiarity.  I've been using it a long time and am very comfortable with all of its features.
It is also very flexible as to what annotations I use, be it single ended arrows, double ended arrows, circles, ovals, boxes etc. as well as being able to change line thickness, color and position/orientation very easily. I am also able to select various fonts and then use Bold/italic/underline if I wish. It also has transparency and overlay capabilities that I use for my infrared work.  I can take a digital picture and overlay an infrared picture, adjusting its transparency so that the underlying picture still shows through but the problem area shows up via the infrared picture. A straight infrared thermogram can be rather cryptic and difficult to understand if one is not trained to interpret them.  This way the digital image provides a reference for the infrared image that illustrates a thermal anomaly that would not be visible to the naked eye.

There is even a feature by which I can make a particular area a "hotspot" that when moused over pops up a link that can be clicked to step out to another Web page to look at for additional information about that particular thing.  Of course this is something I don't use in my reporting but have used in my web work.  I totally understand that as a small part of the overall program, HIP's picture editing functions are not likely to be as complete or flexible as a dedicated program would be.  It's just me.  I'm a geek and I like geek toys. ;D

HIP does all of that except double ended arrows and the hotspot feature. We've had the IR overlay for a few years too.
