Bodybuilding Tips
Only the Ultimate and Business Versions of Windows Vista come with a screenshot tool called the Snipping Tool and it’s pretty good. You can select by click-n-dragging the portion of the screen that you want to take a screenshot of and the Snipping tool will capture it and show you in the editor itself but no auto-save as an image format unfortunately. Instead of going to start and then search and then laboriously typing out the name of the tool to bring it up on the list and using it is too boring, timeconsuming and might sometimes be too late for you to use it ( In case you want to use it for snipping some part of a video being streamed ). So what I am going to do is to assign a hotkey pressing which the tool will appear for you pronto.
Step 1: Go to "Start", type in the search "Snipping", you should see it pop up. If it doesn’t appear, then you have a version of Vista that doesn’t come with this feature; Vista Ultimate and Business users (not confirmed) should have this feature.
Step 2: Right-click the tool, click on "Properties".
Step 3: In the "Shortcut Key" box enter a shortcut key combination that you think is best, but also that doesn’t conflict with some other program. The best one that I chose is "Crtl+Alt" as I don’t know of any programs using this Hotkey except Irfan View for screenshots.
Step 4: If you like using this and don’t want the red border on screenshots that you take, click on "Tools | Options" and choose "White" as "Ink Color".
Step 5: After you capture a snip, you can save it by clicking the "Save Snip" button. You can save a snip as an HTML/MHT, PNG, GIF, or JPEG file.
