Quick Screen Capture Mac

[Ermengardi Atkisson]

QuickScreen Capture is a screen capture and image editing tool for Microsoft Windows. It allows you to capture any part of the screen with just a few mouse clicks, edit, paint the captured image with many useful tools, and save the screenshot into BMP/JPG/GIF formats. It supports auto saving, copying image to the clipboard. A history list help you to manage all the saved files, which is especially useful when you capture a lot.

I'm looking for a quick screen capture application that simply brings up the screen selection tool (which part of the screen I want to capture) with some keybinding and saves it directly into some specified directory. In particular, I don't want any GUI to pop up. Has someone an application in mind that fulfills the above criteria?

Comments "Fantastic Screen Capture App!"

This feature-rich little app includes everything you could possibly wish for in a screen capturing program, including built-in graphic tools, multiple undo's, and the capability of saving the screenshots as bmp, jpeg, or gif. I frequently add arrows or other highlighting to my screen prints so usually take the bmp file into PSP to add graphics, however with this program all the graphic tools I need are included. Smooth, professional installation process, works great with XP, and Uninstaller is built in.

Hi Joaquin - the only thing that comes to mind off hand is to make a layout (maybe in a template file ) with the page and four views set up to fill the screen and capture that all at once with ViewCaptureToFile.

Yes, it has never been updated since. I took it down hoping I would make updated version that uses fully Rhino 5 capacities but so far it was not a high priority as it still does what I mostly need. So the version you have from 2012 still is the latest. It does not let you capture multiple viewports, just NamedViews.

Thanks for the fast response!

The result I want is almost the same as a simple screenshot, without the menus. But what I would like is having the option set or duplicate the resolution of the result, and may be all the options that -viewcapturetofile has, like transparent background if the file format is png.

I need to visit hundreds of websites and take screen captures of certain regions of the screen. The region is always the same aspect ratio. My process now, is to take a full screenshot, bring it into Photoshop and make my selection using a fixed aspect ratio and finally saving the image. It takes a while, considering I have to do this hundreds of times.

I've seen OSX utilities for taking screen captures (including the built-in OSX ones) but I'm looking specifically for one where I can capture just a area/selection of the screen AND (ahead of time) tell it what aspect ratio I want that area/selection to be. I simply want to press a button, move or select the area (which is already fixed at the desired aspect ratio) and then type in a filename to save it.

There are two options to make this whole thing a lot easier for you - they are tools that specifically take screenshots of webpages with you having to go through the rigmarole of visiting the site, taking a screenshot and then editing it in Photoshop or the like.

There's a little app called SimpleCap (free) that is perfect for this. I came across it a few months ago at the tail end of a very long search for screenshot tools, and have been using it on a daily basis ever since.

It gives you the option to take shots of the full screen, windows, custom selections, applications, menus and even dashboard widgets. It lets you choose the image format, enable image treatments, set up preset selection sizes, export to other apps, set a countdown/timer, and it even has some light file management functionality. It can do more than many of the premium apps, and is one of those tools that you'll continue to find new uses for down the road.

Now i've tried it: XScope contains a tool named "frames". You can place a frame on your screen, resize it to your desired size and aspect ratio and take as many screenshots as you like without losing the frame or its position/aspect ratio.

I am aware of two screen capture programs that allow users to specify an aspect ratio for their screenshots: SnapzPro X (by Ambrosia, $69 as of March 2013) and Jing (by TechSmith, free). With SnapzPro X, you can select any aspect ratio. In Jing, you have two options: hold the key while selecting a capture area to lock to a 4:3 aspect ratio. Pressing on the key while selecting a capture area locks on a 16:9 aspect ratio. Here is link to Jing's tutorial that explains this feature: -jing-select-capture-area.html

The built-in Snipping Tool lets you snap, save, annotate and share screenshots of all or a portion of your screen. It can also record a video -- with sound -- of a window on your desktop. The easiest way to call up the Snipping Tool is by using the keyboard shortcut Windows key + Shift + S.

Once you take your screenshot, it will be saved to your clipboard and show up momentarily as a notification in the lower-right corner of your screen. Click the notification to open the screenshot in the Snipping Tool app to annotate, save or share it. (If you miss the notification, open the notification panel and you'll see it sitting there.)

To start recording a video, you need to highlight a portion of your screen and then click Start from the small panel at the top of your screen. You can choose to record system audio or sound from the microphone -- or both.

If you search for the Snipping Tool from the taskbar or open it from the Start menu's alphabetical list of apps, it will open a small window instead of the tiny panel at the top of the screen. From here, you need to click the New button in the upper left to initiate a screen capture and open the small panel. It's an extra step to proceed this way, but it also lets you delay a screenshot by 3, 5 or 10 seconds.

After opening the Snipping Tool, click the New button to begin the screenshot process. The default snip type is rectangular, but you can also take free-form, full-screen and window snips.

You can also set the PrtScn button to open the Snipping Tool by going to Settings > Accessibility > Keyboard and toggling on Use the Print screen key to open screen capture.

To capture your entire screen and automatically save the screenshot, tap the Windows key + Print Screen key. Your screen will briefly go dim to indicate you've just taken a screenshot, and the screenshot will be saved to the Pictures > Screenshots folder.

To take a quick screenshot of the active window, use the keyboard shortcut Alt + PrtScn. This will snap your currently active window and copy the screenshot to the clipboard. You'll need to open the shot in an image editor to save it.

You can use the Game bar to snap a screenshot, whether you're in the middle of playing a game or not. First, you'll need to enable the Game bar from the settings page by making sure you've toggled on Record game clips, screenshots and broadcasts using Game bar. Once enabled, hit the Windows key + G key to call up the Game bar. From here, you can click the screenshot button in the Game bar or use the default keyboard shortcut Windows key + Alt + PrtScn to snap a full-screen screenshot. To set your own Game bar screenshot keyboard shortcut, to Settings > Gaming > Game bar.

If you're rocking a Microsoft Surface device, you can use the physical (well, sort of physical) buttons to take a screenshot of your entire screen -- similar to how you would take a screenshot on any other phone or tablet. To do this, hold down the Windows logo touch button at the bottom of your Surface screen and hit the physical volume-down button on the side of the tablet. The screen will dim briefly and the screenshot will be automatically saved to the Pictures > Screenshots folder.

This could be anything from using a screen capture program that uses variable frame rates to rendering to the wrong format. I wouldn't even try and guess without at least a few workflows, system, and project details.

I'm capturing my screen with QuickTime Player Version 10.5 (1015.2.1), just using their "New Screen Recording" with default features on my 15 inch MacBook Pro running Catalina (10.15.3). I'm trying to screen recording my browser, with my mouse moving across the screen, tapping on a button whichs opens a pop-up window, and then I minimize it.

I then brought it into AfterEffects Version 17.0.5 using "New Composition from Footage." It creates a composition at 59.9362 frames per second. I do some animation work on top of the footage (some lines that move positon and opacity).

I then have tried a number of things to render, all giving me very choppy results. I tried adding to the render queue with "Best Settings" and "Lostless". I also tried doing it in Media Encorder with various pre-sets for H.264 and Qucktime.

I referenced this thread in the Premiere Pro forum, which worked for me. Using Handbrake, I converted my Quicktime screen recording to Constant Frame Rate. I had to change my sequence settings to 30 fps for some reason, but that was ok for my needs and I was able to get smooth playback and rendering.
