Two Ways of How to Make a Screenshot on a Mac

Periodically, when working at the computer we have a need to take a screenshot. It can be some information on the correspondence with a friend or a funny picture of the game. Explain the procedure for the other person to work with a particular program is also much easier with the help of screenshots, than solely on words. On Windows, there are several ways to save an image of the screen or a part thereof. But if you, for whatever reasons, were transferred to this system to another, the familiar keyboard shortcuts there are unlikely to have much influence the desired effect. Here we will focus on the popular Mac OS X, which will be referred to a simplified "poppy". Many users, recently changed the operating system for the first time or running it, faced with certain problems. For example, not everyone knows how to take a screenshot on a Mac.

The task is simple and has several solutions. As many will recall, in the good old Windows you had to use a special key to capture the image, and then open the editing, to insert a picture from the clipboard, and then save it. The Mac operating system process is very similar, although with some differences. There are two easy ways how to take a screenshot on a Mac. The first uses a built-in default utility that is created specifically to capture images from the screen. The second method is carried out by a combination of keys.

Let's start with a description of the second method is more familiar to the former owners of Windows. It tells how to make a screenshot on a Mac quickly and easily. A combination of the so-called "hot keys" can be used for standard image across the screen. In this case, it’s simultaneously with Command Shift and number 4. They should be used if you want not the entire screen, but only a certain part of it. The principle of operation is as follows: first select the desired area with the mouse, and then you must press the specified sequence on the keyboard. If the key combination replace to the number 3, then this combination will automatically create a screenshot of the entire screen. Anyway, choose a desired area for capturing still not enough to display the picture. It now remains to make it. Adding to our Command Shift 4, pressing the space bar, you can take a picture of a particular item selected. This can be a window, menu, icon or - depending on the need. If the cursor is changed to a small camera, everything is done correctly. After clicking the left button, the picture will remain right on your desktop.

The second way is to take a screenshot on a Mac, involves the use of a standard built-in utility. For users who speak English, it has a speaking name - Grab.app. Functional utility is small, but a great deal and it is not necessary to create the images. To open it, go to "Programs", where the "System Tools" is the app you want. Run it. In fact, the main desired menu in the program called "Snapshot", it is the fourth in a row. There you can choose what will be photographed: a specific window, full screen or just a small part. It is a function of "selected" to the last. Clicking on it allows you to choose the desired area. The main advantage of this method is that you can make a screenshot of the delay. It is also the right of each of the options subscribed shortcuts to accelerate work with Grab.app. A few configuration tools allow, for example, turn off the shutter sound, or click to make the cursor displayed on the picture. In general, its use is not much different in complexity from a combination of keys.
