Application windows capturing and automatic annotation

The Dr.Explain tool is exceptionally useful for authoring help files with many screenshots and technical illustrations.

The built-in screenshot capturing tool analyzes internal structure of captured windows or web forms and automatically creates numbered annotations for all significant GUI elements: buttons, fields, options, menus, toolbars, and so on. You must just add some descriptive text to complete the window annotation.

Look at the sample picture below. The Dr.Explain recognized all window controls and enumerated them. The author simply adjusted positions of the numbered callouts and tweaked their titles accordingly.

The Dr.Explain can capture and analyze windows, forms and controls made with any programming technology like MS Visual Studio (WinAPI C\C++, MFC,   WTL, Visual Basic, C#, VB.NET, ASP.NET, WinForms, WPF, and etc) Delphi, Clarion, FoxPro, MS Access, and other software development environments for Windows OS platform.

On large projects, with other help authoring tools those screenshot annotation operations would take hours while with the Dr.Explain you can accomplish it in minutes.

By the way, the Dr.Explain can also handle Web pages and Shockwave Flash (SWF) programs.
