You can also take a screenshot and save it to the clipboard with ctrl+cmd+shift+4 (for a selection) or ctrl+cmd+shift+3 (for the entire screen). The same keys but without the 'ctrl' key will save them to file.
It seems like a ridiculous keyboard shortcut but I use it so much, it's motor memory now.
- noahtallen 2y agoThe great thing about Shottr vs system screenshots is the annotations you can put up very quickly. E.g. 1. $hotkey for screenshot 3. Hit enter to edit 4. Press A to draw an arrow with the mouse 5. Cmd-c to dismiss the edit window and copy & paste wherever. So it basically only takes as long as you take to click down an arrow with your mouse
- al_borland 2y agoI usually use Markup for drawing on screenshots. It's not a rich as Shottr, but I'm usually just drawing a box around something or making an arrow to draw someone's attention.
