Hi Everyone,
Only downloaded the app a couple of days ago, so it's all a bit new to me still!
Could someone please advise me on how i go about capturing a web page, when half of the screen is hidden below the fold?
Thank you in advance for your help and support

Voila 'Web capture' can be used to capture entire web page or parts of a web page directly from Voila or from an active Web browser such as Safari, Firefox or Google Chrome. You can capture a web page using any of the following three
options ( please refer screenshot below )
Web capture from Voila Browser :
You can perform Web capture from Voila in 2 ways :
By opening the required web page using Voila built-in browser
By opening the current URL displayed in the active Web browser, in Voila browser
a. To open the required web page using Voila browser:
Select the ‘Snap from Voila Browser’ option from the ‘Web’ drop-down in Voila toolbar or from the Capture menu.
In the Voila browser that is put up, type the URL in the URL box. You can also search for a web page using the Google search option.
b. To open the current URL displayed in the active Web browser:
Select the ‘Open current URL in Voila’ option from the ‘Web’ drop-down in the Voila toolbar or from the Capture menu or the status menu.
The web page currently displayed in the active Web browser is put up in the Voila browser.
Performing capture operations on the web page displayed in the Voila browser
To capture the entire web page:
Click the ‘Snap web page’ button to the left of the URL box.
You can browse to other web pages in the Voila browser and capture them in the same manner.
To go back to the Organizer, click ‘Done’ button at the top right of Voila browser.
The captured images are displayed in the Capture tray.
To capture a specific scrolling region of the web page:
Click the ‘Snap Selection’ button to the left of the URL box.
Click and drag on the web page to create a selection. To undo a selection, press Cmd + Z. You can also resize and relocate the selection.
You can select multiple regions to be captured by clicking and dragging. To cancel an individual selection, click the Close button displayed at the top-left corner of the selection on mouse hover.
After selecting all the required areas, hit the Return key on the keyboard or click the ‘Snap’ button in the scope bar or double-click on any of the selected areas.
To go back to the Organizer, click the ‘Done’ button at the top right of Voila browser.
The captured images are displayed in the Capture tray.
To capture the DOM elements in the web page:
Click the ‘Snap DOM elements’ button to the left of the URL box.
Click on a DOM element to select it. To undo a selection, press Cmd + Z.
You can select multiple DOM elements to be captured by clicking on the individual elements. To cancel a selection, click the Close button displayed at the top-left corner of the selected DOM element.
After selecting all the required DOM elements, hit the Return key on the keyboard or click the ‘Snap’ button in the scope bar or double-click on any of the selected elements.
To go back to the Organizer, click the ‘Done’ button at the top right of Voila browser.
The captured images are displayed in the Capture tray.
Notes:
Pressing Esc on the keyboard or clicking ‘Cancel’ in the scope bar discards all selections in case of scrolling region and DOM elements selection.
To go back to the Organizer, click the ‘Done’ button at the top right of Voila browser.
Snap web page from active Web browser:
To snap the current web page displayed in the active Web browser:
Select the ‘Snap active browser URL’ option from the ‘Web’ drop-down in the Voila toolbar or from the Capture menu or the status menu.
The web page being currently displayed in the active browser is captured and displayed in the Workbench.
Saving Web Archive:
Voila now provides you with an option to save the web page archive along with the web snap, thus allowing you to save it both as an image and a web page. To save a web page as a web archive, select the 'Save Web Archive' option in the Voila General Preferences.
To open the web snap, select 'Open Web Archive' from the Voila Capture Menu. Selecting this option, opens the saved web page in the Voila Browser.
Note:
Timed capture does not apply to the webcam capture.
Also you can assign HotKeys for Voila Web-capture mode.
Fantastic. Many thanks for your help
