# TechSmith Sdk Patterns ## Overview Production patterns for TechSmith COM API: capture factories, output configuration, and batch processing. ## Instructions ### Step 1: Capture Factory Pattern ```powershell function New-SnagitCapture { param( [ValidateSet('Desktop', 'Window', 'Region')] [string]$InputType = 'Window', [ValidateSet('PNG', 'JPEG', 'BMP', 'GIF')] [string]$Format = 'PNG', [string]$OutputDir = "C:\Screenshots", [bool]$Preview = $false ) $inputMap = @{ Desktop = 0; Window = 4; Region = 2 } $formatMap = @{ PNG = 3; JPEG = 4; BMP = 0; GIF = 2 } $capture = New-Object -ComObject Snagit.ImageCapture $capture.Input = $inputMap[$InputType] $capture.Output = 2 # File $capture.OutputImageFile.FileType = $formatMap[$Format] $capture.OutputImageFile.Directory = $OutputDir $capture.OutputImageFile.Filename = "capture_$(Get-Date -Format 'yyyyMMdd_HHmmss')" $capture.EnablePreview = $Preview return $capture } # Usage $cap = New-SnagitCapture -InputType Window -Format PNG $cap.Capture() ``` ### Step 2: Batch Camtasia Rendering ```powershell function Invoke-CamtasiaBatchRender { param( [string[]]$ProjectFiles, [string]$OutputDir, [string]$Preset = "MP4 - Smart Player (up to 1080p)" ) $producer = "C:\Program Files\TechSmith\Camtasia 2025\CamtasiaProducer.exe" $results = @() foreach ($project in $ProjectFiles) { $name = [Sy...
