What is how to screenshot on thinkpad?

Here's how to take screenshots on a ThinkPad:

There are several methods you can use to capture your screen:

  • Using the Print Screen (PrtScn) Key: This is the most common method.

    • Pressing the <a href="https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Print%20Screen">Print Screen</a> (often labeled "PrtSc," "PrtScn," or similar) key will copy a picture of your entire screen to your clipboard. You can then paste it into an image editor like Paint, Photoshop, or even a document.
    • Pressing <a href="https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Alt%20+%20Print%20Screen">Alt + Print Screen</a> will capture only the active window and copy it to the clipboard.
  • Using the Windows Key + Print Screen:

    • Pressing the <a href="https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Windows%20Key%20+%20Print%20Screen">Windows Key + Print Screen</a> keys simultaneously will capture a screenshot of your entire screen and automatically save it as a PNG file in the "Screenshots" folder within your "Pictures" folder. The screen will briefly dim to indicate the screenshot was taken.
  • Using the Snipping Tool (Windows):

    • The <a href="https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Snipping%20Tool">Snipping Tool</a> is a built-in Windows utility for capturing custom screenshots. You can search for it in the Windows search bar. It allows you to capture rectangular snips, free-form snips, window snips, or full-screen snips.
  • Using the Snip & Sketch (Windows 10 and later):

    • <a href="https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Snip%20&%20Sketch">Snip & Sketch</a> is the successor to the Snipping Tool. You can launch it by searching for it or by pressing <a href="https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Windows%20Key%20+%20Shift%20+%20S">Windows Key + Shift + S</a>. This will darken your screen and allow you to select an area to snip, similar to the Snipping Tool. The snip is copied to your clipboard and you can edit it in the Snip & Sketch app.

Remember to paste the screenshot from your clipboard into an image editor or document if you used the Print Screen or Alt + Print Screen methods.
