Capture Tips
After receiving a
bunch of letters on how to do a Screen Capture, I've decided to
show how. This can be very useful and I do it almost
everyday. Great for giving a client a preview of their project or
for showing your friends what's on the screen fast and easy. No
software needed.
On
PC
Whole
Screen
Open
the application, website or file you wish to take a snap shot of.
Press the Print Screen key on the keyboard as
shown. Your capture is now stored in memory.
Active
Window Only
Have
an active window on the screen. Now hold down Alt - Print Screen. Your capture is now stored in memory.
Viewing
the Capture
Open
a paint program such as Photoshop or MS Paint. Now make a new
file: File>New and click OK. Now go to Edit>Paste
to paste the capture in the new document. When you get this far,
move to "Cropping the image" below.
On
Mac
Whole
Screen
Hold
down Command - Shift - 3. This will place a file on your Startup
hardrive and it should be found on the desktop as "Picture
1". If you take another capture, it will make another file
called "Picture 2" and so on.
Cursor
described rectangle
Hold down Command + Shift
+ 4. This switches the pointer to a cursor. Select the area
you want to capture with the mouse.
Active
Window Only (or closest window)
Hold
down Caps lock - Command - Shift - 4.
Viewing
the Capture
Open
a paint program such as Photoshop or Mac Paint. Go to File>Open
and browse to the file on the desktop and open it. When you get
this far, move to "Cropping the image" below.
Add Control to the
key combinations above to send the captured image to the
clipboard.
Cropping
the image in Photoshop
Sometimes we want to
remove application interfaces or backgrounds from the image. This
can be done easy in Photoshop.
After
you paste or load your image in Photoshop, select the
Rectangular Marquee tool. Now make a selection around the area
that you want to keep.
Now go to Image>Crop.
Save and you are
finished.
