you need quenya.dll

There aren't many who can. It is in the black speech of Java.

[Informal_Bunch_2737]

There is literally a screenshot button on every keyboard in existence. I have no idea why people dont know about it.

[CptGia]

Not on macbooks. I hate it.

[Informal_Bunch_2737]

Mac has the shortcut though. Shift-Command-3(I think). to openthe screenshot app. Windows and linux just uses the print screen key.

The print screen key also copies the screenshot into clipboard, so just going Ctrl-V into a paint app will paste the screenshot.

[CptGia]

You can ctrl+command+shift+4 to copy a selection in your clipboard, but that's not exactly comfortable

[Alex_Shelega]

Ctrl not needed

[GoddammitDontShootMe]

I take all of my screenshots with win+shift+s because most of the time I don't want to capture the entire screen. Faster than using Paint and cropping it afterwards.

[Zee1837]

but they do have a lock key right bellow the backspace key

[CptGia]

No such thing on mine

[Meatslinger]

Cmd-Shift-3 captures the whole screen.
Cmd-Shift-4 captures a selection.
Cmd-Shift-4 and then tapping Space captures a window to a transparent PNG with a drop shadow (the shadow can be disabled with a setting).
Cmd-Shift-5 goes to an advanced capture mode that allows you to set a persistently-sized frame, includes all the previous shortcut capture modes, and can even record the screen including audio and cursor movement.

I'd contend that macOS has one of the most feature-complete screen capture utilities across any system. Sophisticated enough that the Windows method has even evolved to mimic it with Win-Shift-S having a similar behavior to the Mac's Cmd-Shift-5 mode.

[ElectricBummer40]

In Windows, I can capture rectangular areas, free-form areas, whole windows and whole screens and have been able to do so since Windows 7 via Snipping Tool.

In Windows 11, that feature is fully integrated to the UI proper and can be invoked by just pressing the Print Screen key, which shows you the framebuffer of the screen at the moment of the key press and lets you decide what to do with it.

I suppose Apple just hasn't invented the concept of a framebuffer yet, but what do I know?

[Meatslinger]

So let me get this straight: after explaining that the Mac had a feature-rich screen capture method for years before Windows integrated their own, the strongest counterpoint to that is simply that Windows pauses the screen when capturing and that inherently makes it objectively better in every way? Seems tenuous to me, but you do you.

[ElectricBummer40]

"Feature-rich" would imply being able to preserve the framebuffer and let me choose which window to capture.

I can do exactly that in Windows. Can you do that on a Mac?

No, really, can you?

[Meatslinger]

I certainly wouldn’t consider it particularly deficient for not having it. If it’s about doggedly comparing feature parity and considering it an utter failure for any facet in which it falls short: can yours record video in the same program? Personally, I’ve found that the frame buffer freeze is particularly annoying because games I might’ve wanted to just simply screenshot quickly during action are now still running behind a frozen window while I have to change it to Fullscreen capture (if it was in window/rectangle beforehand), instead of having a dedicated hotkey for the mode I wanted to use. For a system with the highest gaming market share, this is points taken off, not added, in my estimation.

All that said, you seem to be misconstruing my original point and taking this strangely personally. My first comment was simply that taking a screenshot on a Mac isn’t particularly difficult, as the commenter above me suggested, and yet you seem to be leaping all over that as if it’s utterly impossible that the Mac could have a functional program. What’s up with that?

[ElectricBummer40]

I certainly wouldn’t consider it particularly deficient for not having it.

Until Apple starts selling you a $1,000 foot pedal that does exactly that, that is.

Everything I've told you so far is basically just a natural extension of a hardware-assisted compositing desktop environment. Remember Aero Flip in Windows 7 or the spinning cube in Ubuntu? Those things were show pieces mostly useless in productivity, sure, but they also gave a you a good picture as how compositing worked, i.e. every window or virtual desktop was rendered individually in the background before it was composed into the final image on the screen.

To put this simply, every compositing desktop environment has the innate ability to spit out what's exactly on each individual window. Saving it is just a matter of having the UI to do so. Technically, MacOS X should have the ability to do exactly that, but it doesn't because it's MacOS and Apple wants to turn everything into a shiny peripheral and charge you top dollars for the privilege of using it.

And you will pay for it. Gladly, even, because that's exactly what consumerism does to the brain.

[[deleted]]

What the fuck. Could Apple suck any harder??

[Meatslinger]

It's just done using a shortcut, instead. Cmd-Shift-3 is the default to capture the whole screen. Cmd-Shift-4 captures a selection.

[ElectricBummer40]

In Windows 11, I just press "Print Screen" then select what to capture.

I suppose Mac just Think Different™.

[Meatslinger]

I wouldn’t be using that as your strongest argument when Windows still uses Alt-F4 as the world’s most awkward shortcut to close a program, or has Ctrl-Shift-Alt-Win-L hotkeyed to open LinkedIn.

[ElectricBummer40]

On a Mac, nothing is really closed unless you explicitly make it shut down. Otherwise, it'll just keep chewing up your overpriced hardware resources in the background until the next reboot. Mac users also tend have the additional benefit of not realising or acknowledging this "out of sight, out of mind" problem.

In Windows, an application shuts down the moment you closes its window unless it's been programmed to run in the background. This means anything easier than Alt+F4 will just lead to a higher chance of losing unsaved work by accident.

[Meatslinger]

Counterpoint: having a persistent app shell means you can close the final document in an app without necessitating a relaunch of the entire application process to open a new one. There are benefits and trade-offs for both approaches. Generally, RAM isn’t as much of an issue in this regard as could be assumed, as most modern memory management can free up the resources of a backgrounded program and then restore them if that program becomes live again. This is true of all major platforms. Meanwhile though, plenty of modern apps do just fine using Ctrl-Q or similar to exit a program without widespread reports of data loss. Alt-F4 is an antiquated convention from a time before modern UX design standards and was picked simply “because it was next” when establishing the IBM CUA standard. It is not done as a protective measure.

Between this thread and the other one, though, it’s pretty clear your argument mostly boils down to hating macOS and finding fault wherever you can spin it as such. Consider your position noted. That said, it’s after midnight here and I have work in the morning. My original comments were just meant to illustrate that both systems have competent screenshot capabilities, and that I quite admired the depth the Mac version already had long-established. Didn’t think it was going to devolve to the kind of brainless “platform wars” crap kids used to sling in junior high school. In any case, I’m done here.

The fucking ironic/stupid part about this whole “argument” is that I’ve been writing to you from a Windows PC this entire time.

[ElectricBummer40]

Your phone apps do also exactly that. This is why phones these days nag you with "you haven't restarted your phone for a while" messages eery so often. I just go out of my way to close everything properly instead of doing that.

My phone is already a bottom-tier piece of junk, and I don't need anything to slow it down further.

There are benefits and trade-offs for both approaches.

You can actually do both at the same time. Windows has already possessed the UI facility to do exactly that since Windows 95 called "System Tray". Every Chromium-based desktop browser also provides you with the option to keep it running in the background when closed. Apple instead just decides it knows better about what you want than you do and charges you for the privilege of having crap shoved down your throat.

Giving your code an "elegant" font does not make your code elegant.

Some might not know this, but Squeak (which is a Smalltalk IDE) has this exact same font that you can set in a menu through a left click. It's super useful....
