Shift-Cmd-4 and space bar gives you a shot of any individual window you choose. I find this VERY helpful.

Hit the space bar again and you toggle to/from the marquee tool.

VERY nice.  this is the best method i have seen yet!

I love those little tricks that are like, "wow, once you know about this stuff it's SOOO much easier!"

I use this one a lot, .jpg, .png, or .tif. Very flexible

Don't you use Shift-Cmd-4 (Apple)? That gives you a cursor that enables you to target an area as opposed to the whole screen.

Not in Leopard, Apple tossed the feature.

Damn spoke to soon, http://danstechnstuff.com/2007/12/30/easily-take-screenshots-in-mac-os-105-leopard/

But why doesn't it work on my iMac????  I haven't ever been able to take a shot of anything in OS 10.5 :angry: :angry: damn OS bugs

could have sworn I read that Apple dropped the feature...

Sparky, I'm up to 10.5.2 and Shift+Command+4 gives me the cursor to select an area of the screen to capture or hit the spacebar and it will give you a camera cursor and you can click a window to capture. This not working for you?

I'm also at 10.5.2 and nope, tried many different ways, no matter how I try or what I have or don't have open Shift+Cmnd+4 doesn't do a damn thing. Shift+Cmnd+3 doesn't either, I've tried to look through prefs and or any "hlep" for info but to no avail

guess I broke it :rolleyes:
