Now back to the millions of Snagit funs…
A common question that most Snagit users don’t have an answer to is how to capture a Snagit Screen using Snagit! We receive alot of support emails with this question, I must admit the first time I got the question I was dumbfounded myself, but not for long.
This is an actual example of an email we got from a Snagit user:
“I am trying to create in-house step by step instructions on how to perform video capture using SNAGIT. I am trying to capture SNAGIT’s home page w/Quick Launch, Related Tasks, Profiles, and Profiles Settings. But when I use Printscreen it activates SNAGIT. I’ve also tried to use Ctrl Insert, Ctrl A, Ctrl C to capture the screen but to no avail. Is there some way that I can get around the Print Screen hotkey and get my screen capture? I would appreciate feedback as soon as possible…thank you and have a nice holiday…” - Kathy

2.Go to Tools menu.
3.Click Program Preferences…
4.Go to Program Options tab.
5.Uncheck Hide Snagit before capturing.
6.Click Apply button.
7.Then OK.
B. Change Global Capture Hotkeys
1.Go to Program Preferences…
2.Click Hotkeys tab.
3.On the Global capture hotkey, by default it is set to Print Screen, change it to a different key except Print Screen.
4.Click Apply button.
5.Then OK.
How to capture Snagit using Print Screen
When performing a capture using the alternative steps, just press the Print Screen button on your keyboard > open Snagit Editor > create a new blank image (Ctrl + n)> then paste the image (Ctrl + v).
The Print Screen function normally captures the entire screen display, you will have to crop the image to get the desired image from the captured image.
That easy!
Until Next Time
