What's New in ScreenSteps 2?

Here is a list of what's new in ScreenSteps 2.

Lesson Library

All of your lessons are now stored in a single Lesson Library file. This makes working on projects so much easier as you don't have to have ScreenSteps lessons spread out over multiple files. Also, it makes it easier to create lessons that are just for yourself to reference later. You can now use ScreenSteps to "record" all of the little things that you need to remember how to do.

Search Lessons

Since everything is stored in your library file you can now search through all of your lessons. You can also sort lessons by title or the last modification date.

Inline Editing of Images

You no longer need to open a new window to edit images. Just draw right on the image in the step. This really speeds up the annotation process and helps you annotate things in the context of the lesson.

Image Resizing

You can now easily resize images in ScreenSteps. Images will automatically be resized to a size that fits for html and pdf output. But now you can enlarge smaller images if you would like to focus on something.

Replace Image In Step

This is one of our favorites. Ever need to change the screenshots for a lesson because the software interface you are teaching has changed? Now you can just replace the image in place. All of the annotations that were on the previous image will stay in right where they were. This is a huge timesaver for updates.

Tagging Lessons

You can now tag lessons to make them easier to find later on. You can also use this to help your workflow. Need to update some lessons? Just tag them with "Update" and you will have a list of lessons you need to work on.

Create Topics

Need a little more structure to your lessons? Organize them into Topics. You can now do this right in ScreenSteps. You can also use this feature to "stub out" lessons that you need to create.

Export Topics to HTML or PDF (Pro Only)

Need to create an HTML manual or PDF manual? Just export your topic to HTML or PDF.

PDF Templates

You can now create multiple PDF templates with your own setting for margins, logos, footers image placement and page size.
