Cool OS X Blog. I stumbled upon All OS X while looking for a good screen capture utility for OS X. There, I found the following lovely tidbit:
With Mac OS X v10.2, you now have yet another option for capturing
screen shots. To review, here are the two options you’re probably already familiar with: | 1. | Type Command-Shift-3 to take a screen shot of your entire screen. |
| 2. | Type Command-Shift-4 and Mac OS X presents you with crosshairs you can use to select whatever portion of your display you’d like to capture in a screen shot. |
And here’s the new option: |
|
| 3. | Immediately hit the spacebar after typing Command-Shift-4. Instead of crosshairs, you’ll see a little camera. Move the camera around to highlight the Dock, the menu bar, the desktop, or any open window. Then just click the mouse button to “snap” a screen shot. In fact, with this option, you can entirely eliminate the desktop when you capture a screen shot of an individual window. |
Here's proof that it actually works. It's pretty cool how it just puts a PDF on your desktop and then you can use Preview (the application) to export to almost any image format, including Photoshop. I really dig this - I'd love a similar "feature" on XP and Red Hat 8.0. Posted in Mac OS X at Oct 03 2002, 06:40:17 PM MDT 1 Comment
