The wording "Screenshot" implies a screen shot - that is, the capture of what the person sees the currently on the screen of the mobile gadget, laptop or PC monitor. How to perform and save such a photo?
Algorithm for preserving a screenshot on a laptop or PC
Using graphic editors
The easiest and fastest way to prepare the photo image of the screen of your personal device is pressing the "Print Screen" key. The button is located at the top of the keyboard on the right side.
Next, the user needs:
- Run Paint or Photoshop Image Editor.
- Insert a copied snapshot. The easiest and fastest way is the root of the "hot" combination "Ctrl and V".
- When working with Photoshop you need:
- Pre-create a new document (the "File" tab and item "New") will be required.
- Before saving the picture, connect the resulting 2 layers together (for example, using the combination "Ctrl + Shift + E").
- Next, you can save both the whole picture and some separate part of it. In the first case, it is enough to go to the "File" tab and select the option of saving or saving with a specific name and extension among the drop-down list ("Save as").
- If desired, only a separate area of \u200b\u200bthe picture should be kept:
- Using the selection form (in the control panel is represented by a picture with a dotted circuit), designate the selection boundary.
- Copy the desired fragment is the clamping of the combination "Ctrl and C".
- Open a new document.
- Place (via "Ctrl + V") a picture.
- Save it.
Help programs for work with graphics is most often required if you need to further correct the picture image.
Working with hot key combinations
- Combination "Windows and Print Screen (or PRTSC)". Pulling this combination of buttons, the user automatically automatically creates, but also saves the photo of the screen. The resulting image will have the extension ".png" and will be placed on the hard disk of your personal device in the image section. To facilitate the search for such a file, you can use the search engine of the conductor.
- Opening your computer with a double left click, go to the hard disk.
- In the search string (the right upper angle of the window) register ".png" (without quotes).
- Run search.
- Find the previously saved file among the results. If you wish, you can move to any other place.
- The combination of "Windows + H" sends your picture image to the cloud storage. Using the application panel, which opens, the user itself solves the further "fate" of the prepared photo of the screen - shipment by email, export to any online service ("OneNote", "Dropbox"), etc.
