Previously, you’d require third-party apps such as Lightshot to help you capture screenshots easier with instant editing. Let's learn how to use the new Snip & Sketch app for smart screenshots in detail here below.Īlthough screengrabs have been possible natively from Windows Vista, it’s gotten more advanced and easier to use in Windows 10. After selecting your option, use the mouse pointer/cursor to draw the area you want to capture. This will dim the screen and add a small toolbar at the top of the display, where you can choose to snip a rectangle, a free-form area, or the entire screen. The Snipping Tool does not automatically save your screenshots and is not expected to be included in future Windows updates.To begin a capture in Snip & Sketch, use the Windows 10 built-in shortcut: Windows key + Shift + S. If you are used to using Windows old Snipping Tool, we recommend you transition to Snip & Sketch. The keyboard shortcut is great if you only need to capture a specific part of the screen, but the app is better when you want to annotate a capture by highlighting text, circling or adding a comment. If you open Snip & Sketch from the Start menu or after pinning the app to your taskbar, it will open the application rather than the menu and require you to select New.
Once you take your screenshot, it will be saved to your clipboard (see our previous Tech Tip on how to access your clipboard history). Select which type of screenshot you want: rectangular selection, free-form, whole window or full-screen.Ĥ. Snip & Sketch is an easier way to capture a specific area of your screen and make notations on the image before pasting it directly into any application, document, email or even a Teams chat.ġ. Click Windows + Shift + S or search for it in taskbar.Ģ. A small menu will open at the top of your screen.ģ.
