When you press that Space Bar your cursor will then become a camera and you can move that camera over any open application window to get a Screenshot just of that app – and even better your Screenshot will be really lovely with a nice little drop shadow and round corners to make it look like a really professional Screenshot. Press Command-Shift-4 just like last time, but before you click-and-drag a box, press the Space Bar on your keyboard. Here I’m going to drag a box just around the Keynote window itself, and then that Screenshot will only have the application area that I’ve selected.īut if you’re after a Screenshot of just a particular App there’s another really helpful tip here that you’ll find handy. Your arrow cursor has now turned into a little plus sign and you can click-and-drag over the part of the screen you want to capture. That Screenshot will disappear down at the bottom right hand corner and from here you can drag-and-drop that thumbnail, or you can wait for it to save on your Desktop to use.Īs you can see I’ve captured everything on my page here in one Screenshot super quickly, but sometimes you actually want to take a Screenshot just of a particular part of your screen – maybe an application that you’ve got open or even just an item on the menu bar.įor this you can press and hold Command-Shift and 4 and when you press those keys you won’t take a Screenshot immediately, but you’re primed and ready to go!
