Ubertracker Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 Sorry to ask a question that's porobably in the manual, but my manual is at work and I'm at home (damn!). How do I take a screen shot again? Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 You can either use your operating system's default screen capture method or you can use an utility like HyperSnap (which has a limited functionality before you purchase it, I guess). For Windows users you can press the 'Print Scrn (Screen)' button on your keyboard and it should capture the entire screen (though it is possible for certain videoboards and their drivers to screw up such screen captures). You can then go into Paint or some other graphics program, open a new document and then Paste (the Print Screen is saved as a BMP in the clipboard). Other programs offer the capability of capturing more than one screen shot at a time (the Print Screen method above is limited to one image in the clipboard - it will get overwritten with the next press of the button) and offering other graphics formats beyond just BMP (such as JPG, etc.). I can't remember what the default keystrokes are for screen captures on the Mac (Option + ?). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Costa Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 On the Macintosh, screenshots can be taken by hitting Shift-Cmd-3 (to get the whole screen) or Shift-Cmd-4 (to capture a rectangular section). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
