Screen Capture on a Laptop

Posted by Orlick on 6/26/09

I was stuck for a bit on my laptop trying to do a screen capture – which is usually ctl+Print Screen… and it wasn’t working.

You have to press function (fn) + print screen on a laptop to do the screen capture. They conserve space by making less keys. Get used to the function key for obscure practices such as this.

  1. Alternatively, on a mac, cmd+shft+3 will do a full screen capture. cmd+shft+4 will bring up crosshairs that allow you to select what you want to take a shot of.

    think different.
