I love the preset in SnagIt that allows me to scale down a screen shot. However, I believe it is missing an option, which I would call, "Do Not Enlarge".
Why: I don't like huge screen shots that create horizontal scroll bars. I copy screen shots from client's systems into an internal system or email, I think it's good form to keep screen shots readable and properly sized. The preset in Snagit to "Scale Image" is a nice time saver.
If my screen grab is 950 pixels wide, my preset automatically resizes it to 650 pixels, which fits nicely into my internal system and email. However, if my screen grab is 550 pixels, it gets enlarged to 650 pixels and the quality drops.
I'd like to setup a preset that scales my screen grabs down to 650 pixels if they are too big, but never enlarges them.
Scale by Percent doesn't work, since small screen shots should be left at 100%, and a huge screen shot might need to be scaled by 50%.
