A lot of people hate keyboard shortcuts, I happen to be one of them, not because they aren’t useful, it just takes me a minute to remember which shortcut does what, and by the time I figure it out, it’s not much of shortcut anymore. So, I tend to do things other ways and not by utilizing keyboard shortcuts. So, I wanted to make sure we took care of other people out there that are in the same boat. So in this section, you will see how to create a screenshot or capture without using your keyboard.
Below you will a screenshot of how to take a screenshot using preview. Ironically, I actually used the keyboard shortcuts above to do it since it was easier, huh, go figure. lol
There is an added benefit to taking your screenshots using this method as you can pick what time of file your screenshot is saved as. So if having a specific file type of your screenshot is important then this could be a great option. You can save your capture as JPG, TIFF, PDF, and other file formats.
A lot of times a quick screenshot is great, but if you want to point out something specific or add some text, you may look at some other great free screen capture options for the mac. One I use all the time is SNIP.
For instance this a Snip I took and added text to for our Shutter speed article in our photography section. You can see we took the screenshot using snip and then easily added an arrow and text to make our image more impactful to the lesson.
It’s a free tool and works great with some additional editing features. (The files will be named something like snip2011801_1.png )
