Macgasm: Quick Tip -> Dashboard Screenshots!

  • Dave · 1 year ago
    Another cool screenshot key combination is Apple-Shift-4. That will give you cross-hairs to select a portion of the page that interests you.

    Thanks for the tip. Isn't there one for just grabbing the current window?

    I think you have to use Grab.app to do just a window.

    Easter egg! If you zoom in a bit you'll notice that me and Josh in iChat learning how to calculate time across time zones.. It's harder than it sounds.. really!!

    Haha, you've got to love OS X. Every time I stumble across some new "feature" I beat it to death.

    Apple-Shift-4 gives you a crosshair that lets you select a certain area of the screen to capture, and Apple-Shift-4 then Space captures the active window. If you want to capture your desktop or a window directly to the clipboard, press Apple-Shift-Ctrl-3 to get the whole desktop, Apple-Shift-Ctrl-4 to get the crosshair, and Apple-Shift-Ctrl-4 then Space to get the active window.

    Thanks a ton for the comment. I had a hunch that it was possible to do the active window, but I'm constantly being told that it was only a grab thing.
