Capture Screen shots for presentations

Listen to this Tip

Have you ever wanted to quickly capture a shot of your computer screen? It’s really easy when you use the printscreen key. In today’s digital world, we all run into situations when we really need to show someone what our computer screen looks like. This is really handy for things like getting technical support, writing training manuals, and giving presentations. If you want to capture an image of your current screen, here’s all you have to do: Click on the window of the application you want to get a screen shot of, then hold down your ALT key and press on the “print screen” button on your keyboard. Then click into your favorite application and simply do a “paste” operation. You’ll magically see the screen image appear and then you can manipulate it as needed. This is a really handy feature I’ve used countless times and I’m sure you’ll love it.
