If you want to use images or graphics for presentations, help hotlines or websites Screenshots from Windows nothing is easier than that. You set up the desired view and press the Print or PrintScreen button on the keyboard. If you now click on Paste in Paint, PhotoImpact or Word, for example, you will get an exact copy of the screen. However, sometimes the screen is overcrowded or/and only one window should be visible, e.g. the desktop. In this case, you had to laboriously crop and save the desired window with an image editing program, which in the long run is a loss of time, which I am now putting an end to.
Win 98 – Einfache Screenshot-Variationen
1. Open the desired window, e.g. the Internet Explorer version information (?/Info) and hold down the ALT key.
2. Now press the Pressure Taste und lassen Sie los. Statt einem Chaosbild, welches Sie mit der gewöhnlichen Drucktaste gemacht haben…
…haben Sie nun ein bereits sauber ausgeschnittenes Fenster.
I hope you enjoyed this tip. It's nothing special but for some people it saves time.
