Taking a screenshot?

[22down]

Anyone know how to take a screenshot? Basically I want to take a "picture" of a waveform in the edit view to show someone something. Thanks in advance for any help!!

I forgot to add... I'd like to save this as a .jpg file.
Thanks.

command + shift + 4


then drag the crosshairs. The image will show up on your desktop (or wherever you've set your default.)



command + shift + 3 takes a shot of the whole screen


(there may be one more way but I can't remember right now. There's also an application in OS 10 in utilites called "Grab" that takes screen shots, but since I always use command + shift + 4, I've not explored it.

If you are on OSX, just use the App called "Grab" which is located in the Utilities folder under Applications.

Oh. I think it comes up as a PDF, so i'd change it in Photoshop or something if necessary. Maybe there's an OS 10 app that'll do it.

option+shift+4 then hit space bar to "capture" the window that the cursor (now a camera) is over.
Also open in "preview" and export to another format is you need to

Command+Shift+3 will take a shot of your screen and toss ot onto the desktop as a .pdf

Snapz in your application folder does the same job, you can select exactly what you want to take a pic of (ie-border)

There is a lot of NeXT stuff that was updated for OS X. I wish they would update BoinkOut. The sounds were really cool !

Take Care,
