What is the Screenshot Tool?
The Screenshot Tool captures an image of the current webpage. It takes a picture of exactly what you see on your screen and saves it as a file on your computer.
This is useful for saving information from websites, keeping a record of important pages, or sharing what you see with others. It captures the visible webpage area, not content below the screen.
To extract words from a picture instead, use Screenshot Reader. Its keyboard selection controls belong to that separate tool.
Who is This For?
This feature is helpful for:
- Students who need to save information for assignments
- Anyone who wants to keep a record of webpage content
- People who need to share what they see online with others
- Researchers who want to document web sources
- Anyone who needs to capture website content quickly
