How do you take a screen shot on a Mac?

Answer 1

On a Mac, it is easy to take a screenshot: Command + Shift + 5 and you will have an overlay with the full-screen, partial, or even screen recording options. Select your mode, and click on capture. The files are visible on the desktop and can be viewed in Preview. The tool I think you should give a try is ScreenRec which is also used by many people to capture something lightweight and share it easily with native macOS tools or apps such as Lightshot to annotate.

I always use FonePas Screen Recorder.

Step 1 Launch the Mac screen recorder. A toolbar will appear.

Step 2 Click the monitor icon to select which screen area you want to record. You can choose to record the full screen, a region in the preset or any area that you select.

Step 3 If you need to record video via webcam, turn on the camera button. You can select the position of the webcam in the screen recording, for example, place the webcam in the bottom left of the screen.

Step 4 If you need to record video with audio, turn on the System sound and Microphone button to enable sound.

Step 5 When you are ready, click the REC button to start recording. A toolbar will show allowing you to draw, write or highlight something in the screen.

Step 6 When what you need to record is finished. Click the red button again to stop recording. You can then view and share the screen video.
