Taking Screenshots of phones and desktop varies from the operating systems.
While you want to take a screenshot on MacBook or Mac Pro, supported by Apple, note that the process is not the same for Windows but it is quite earlier comparatively.
On MacBook or Mac Pro, the keyboard shortcuts appeared to do the magic but each of the shortcuts will capture different parts of the screen.
Generally, to take a screenshot on MacBook or Mac Pro, you go through the following steps;
- To take a screenshot, press and hold these three keys together: Shift, Command, and 3.
- If you see a thumbnail in the corner of your screen, click it to edit the screenshot. Or wait for the screenshot to save to your desktop.
Besides that, you can combine Command-Shift-3, this keyboard shortcut captures a screenshot of your entire screen.
Shift-Command-4
These key combinations will turn your cursor into a crosshair, which you can drag to select a portion of your screen to capture. Release the mouse button or trackpad to take the shot.
Shift-Command-5
This combination calls up a small panel at the bottom of your display with your screen capture options.
