Chic Aeon Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Well someone had a spam post just here (with possible maliciousness in it) and while I was adding my note to the thread it disappeared (first time for everything). While it is good it is gone, I WAS trying to recommend the Windows Snipping Tool (Win 7 - Win 10).Very easy to use; Safe, Free. You can save the 'snipped' area or copy and paste it into an email or whatever. I didn't find it until I got a new machine with Win 10 but it has been around since Win7. So do a search on you machine. It is something that I (and friends I have told about it) use daily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamara Artis Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Yeah I use it often... and even faster tool happens when you install Dropbox, then all you need to do is press Print screen buton on your keyboard and it saves your whole screen from which you can later cut out whats important Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chic Aeon Posted July 9, 2016 Author Share Posted July 9, 2016 . You don't need Dropbox for the Print Screen key to work. It has for about twenty years. That's what many of us used before we found the Snipping Tool *wink*. Alt + Print Screen will do JUST the open window (sized down if you wish) and not the full size of your monitor.

Tamara Artis Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 lol I mean it works in "one click" - I don't have to save as, rename or whatever, just one move of the finger and its done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chic Aeon Posted July 9, 2016 Author Share Posted July 9, 2016 Yes, I figured that out and was coming here to say so - LOL. Was in the middle of my night and not toooooooo clear. But will leave here for folks that do not know. I will say the snipping tool also lets your 'draw' right there. You and even write a note (not with the keyboard - so printing or cursive ) or draw and arrow. It isn't PRETTY mind you, but it does work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
