I use an old version of Snagit when I only want a portion of the sreen
chart. Most forums only allow limited file sizes and a lot of detail
gets lost if you reduce the entire screen too much.
Plus I can add to the screen image, including overlays of other charts
and large text or other images not available in AB.
But for straight use the whole chart without need for making smaller
or enhancinig AB image is great.
