Navigate to Launchpad > Other > Screenshot to launch the screenshot tool.

You’ll be provided with a toolbar that provides five different types of screenshots (what Mac users call “captures”). You’ll have options to:

• Capture the entire screen
• Capture selected window
• Capture selected portion
• Record entire screen
• Record selected portion

The last two options are particularly helpful for Cognella Active Learning demonstrations, if you plan to have an online, interactive component paired with your textbook.

As a shortcut, you can launch this toolbar on your Mac by clicking Command + Shift + 5 simultaneously. 

Similar to the Windows Print Screen button, you can use Command + Shift + Control + 3 to capture the entire screen, or Command + Shift + Control + 4 for a more precise area of the screen. The image won’t save to the computer, but it can be pasted into an app.
