New Features |
In version 0.34:
Fix the problems with Retina displays (credit to Yu-sheng Chen and Kuang-Yu Pan).
In version 0.33:
Fix the performance issue under Vista (credit to mifan).
In version 0.32:
Enable maximize button.
In version 0.31:
Snoop now supports multiple configurations (up to 9).
Use 'Shift+Fn' to save the current configuration as
configuration n, 'Ctrl+Fn' to load configuration n.
To start a snoop with specific configuration file,
start it with '-f n' in command line. Without specifying
which configuration to use, configuration #1 will be used.
The option 'Auto save config' will save to configuration
#1 when exiting. Press 'Backspace' will reset your
configuration #1 to default setting. Press 'Del' to remove
all the configurations.
The configurations are saved in windows registry. To remove
them, run 'regedit' from 'Start->Run'. Find 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER
->Software->snoop' and delete the whole snoop directory.
Of course, you can edit the configuration files if you know
what you are doing. If you downloaded ver 0.3, I will suggest
you to remove the registry. (Press 'Del' will do it in ver 0.31)
In version 0.30:
You can either press 'f' to manually save program status at
any time or use "Edit->Auto save config" to turn on auto
configuration saving function so that the program status
will be saved each time you exit snoop.

h: View horizontal linear intensity profile.
H: View horizontal step intensity profile.
v: View vertical linear intensity profile.
V: View vertical step intensity profile.
o: Turn off profile view.
l: Turn on/off highlight in profile view.
For Histogram:
F4: Display histogram
i: Statistics on/off for histogram
PgUp: Increase height in histogram
PgDn: Decrease height in histogram
