Let go of the mouse button or trackpad to take the screenshot. You can toggle between height and width by pressing the Shift key. This allows you to adjust the height and width of the box. Adjust the height and width: After dragging the crosshair to create a highlighted area, press and hold the Shift key.Just release the spacebar to take your screenshot. You can then drag the box anywhere on the screen. This locks the box so it can't change size. Lock in the shape and size: After dragging the crosshair to create highlighted area, press and hold the space bar.When the screenshot is saved, it'll have a gray border around it. Hover the camera cursor over window you want to capture and click on it. Capture a specific window: Press Shift + Command + 4 and then hit the spacebar.After pressing Shift + Command + 4, you can press other keys to unlock more options: That's not all you can do with this method. If Greenshot really is as configurable as that menu suggests then I would expect anyone to be able to map a hot-key combo that would suite them.Everything in the highlighted box will be screenshotted. Maybe this only works for me because my customer's laptop has a double "insert/prt sc" right next to it's F12 directly above the it's delete key and that just happens to map to my F13. Thanks to the peeps that were discussing the function keys! This would have been way cooler if I could have easily recorded it in video.
#APPLE MAC SCREENSHOT SHORTCUT FULL#
This full screen cap invoked from the Mac thru RDP via the Mac Option/Alt key + F13 keyĪnd finally a couple of Mac full screen caps (emailed to PC again) showing the Mac's whole screen with the Greenshot cross hairs waiting for me to select a screen section on the PC as I finished writing this. It appears that Greenshot hot-key combo's are configurable but all those key combo's work for me because my F13 invokes the PC's 'Prt-scrn' key After I installed Greenshot and went to do a screen cap I thought "oh ! Because I don't have a 'print-screen' key and that's what lead me here. I downloaded Greenshot a couple days ago, so I've used it exactly 3 times so far and those 3 screen caps are uploaded here. Print Screen Section From Greenshot showing me writing this on the PC invoked from the Mac's F13 thru RDP I was unaware of Greenshot until a few days ago Set Capture Region hotkey to Ctrl+Shift+S (I selected this in my mac large keyboard, you can choose whatever F19 or any) Choose Destination to Clipboard. The PC belongs to my customer so I don't want to buy Snag-it for it. Take a screen shot of part of the screen On keyboard press Command-Shift-4 then drag the cross-hair pointer to select the area to capture. I needed this because I do A LOT of screen caps for work and the "snipping tool" sucks rocks. Greenshot's defaults are set to use the PC's print-screen key. Drag over and down (while still holding the click press) until you cover all the area you want captured. Attached is the cmd-shift-4 screen cap of the RDP session showing "Greenshot" just after it was invoked thru the RDP session via F13 from the Mac's wireless keyboard (I emailed the Mac screen cap to the work PC). To take the screenshot, simply click in the spot where you want your screenshot to start (don't release the click) and drag the cursor to where you want the screenshot to finish. I just found this forum cause I needed to do this and I just happened to try F13 after something I read here inspired me to do so.
#APPLE MAC SCREENSHOT SHORTCUT BLUETOOTH#
I have an old bluetooth Model A1016 that looks just like the above keyboard sans cord and F13 invokes printscreen thru my RDP session on the Windows7 PC I'm controlling via my old Macbook Air 11
