Snipping tool note
I already wrote about how I like the utility Snipping Tool . But she has one drawback: to take a picture, you need to click somewhere ... which means that all open menus of all programs immediately close (because they lose focus).
For example - there is no way to take a picture of the open “Start menu”.
Fortunately, there is a solution. It turns out that this utility has an undocumented hotkey ... Here's how to proceed!
- Open the “Snipping tool”. She immediately selects the entire screen (whitened).
- Click “cancel”.
- Open the menu you need. For example, “Start menu”.
- Press the magic “button combination” - “Ctrl” + “Print Screen”. Voila! The whole screen is “frozen”.
- Now you can choose from the list next to the “New” button what exactly you need to screenshot and save.
