Can you take a screen shot on a Mac?

Answer 1

It is indeed possible to take a screenshot on a Mac — macOS has keyboard shortcuts that can take a screenshot without any additional software. Control + Shift + 3 will instantly take a full screen shot and Command + Shift + 4 will allow you to draw a box around a particular area and take a shot. Then, your screenshot will be displayed on your desktop in the form of a PNG file that can be opened, annotated in Preview or transferred to Photos. You can also combine Apple’s native tools with ScreenRec when you desire screenshots and quick recordings with automatic link generation and a simple history to navigate.

Answer 2

Yes, on Mac you can capture screenshots easily without the use of additional software. Command + Shift + 3 will capture everything on the screen whereas Command + Shift + 4 will allow you to capture what you desire. You can even use Command + Shift + 4, and then Space, and click a window to capture only that app. If you need some extra options i.e., annotation, cloud storage and sharing screenshots with a link, ScreenRec is compatible with these built-ins, and people who prefer to have screenshots and video captures in a lightweight capture history.

Answer 3

Taking screenshots on Mac is on the tips of the finger. You can take a screen shot of your entire screen by holding down the Command and Shift keys and pressing a 3.

If you hold down the Command and Shift keys and press 4, Mac OS X turns the cursor into crosshairs you can use to select whatever portion of your display you'd like to capture in a screen shot.

If you immediately hit the Spacebar after typing Command-Shift-4, Mac OS X replaces those crosshairs with a little camera. Using the camera, you can take a screen shot of the Dock, the entire menu bar, a single open menu, the desktop, or any open window.
