<title>Screenshots and screencasts</title>

  <p>You can take a picture of your screen (a <em>screenshot</em>) or record a
  video of what is happening on the screen (a <em>screencast</em>). This is
  useful if you want to show someone how to do something on the computer, for
  example. Screenshots and screencasts are just normal picture and video files,
  so you can email them and share them on the web.</p>

  <title>Een schermafdruk maken</title>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>Open <app>Screenshot</app> from the
      <gui xref="shell-terminology">Activities</gui> overview.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>In the <app>Screenshot</app> window, select whether to grab the whole
      screen, the current window, or an area of the screen. Set a delay if you
      need to select a window or otherwise set up your desktop for the
      screenshot. Then choose any effects you want.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
       <p>Klik op <gui>Schermafdruk maken</gui>.</p>
       <p>If you selected <gui>Select area to grab</gui>, the pointer changes
       into a crosshair. Click and drag the area you want for the
       screenshot.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>In the <gui>Save Screenshot</gui> window, enter a file name and choose
      a folder, then click <gui>Save</gui>.</p>
      <p>Alternatively, import the screenshot directly into an image-editing
      application without saving it first. Click <gui>Copy to Clipboard</gui>
      then paste the image in the other application, or drag the screenshot
      thumbnail to the application.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <note style="tip">
    <title>Keyboard shortcuts</title>

    <p>Quickly take a screenshot of the desktop, a window, or an area at any
    time using these global keyboard shortcuts:</p>

    <list style="compact">
      <item>
        <p><key>Prt Scrn</key> to take a screenshot of the desktop.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p><keyseq><key>Alt</key><key>Prt Scrn</key></keyseq> to take a
        screenshot of a window.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p><keyseq><key>Shift</key><key>Prt Scrn</key></keyseq> to take a
        screenshot of an area you select.</p>
      </item>
    </list>

    <p>When you use a keyboard shortcut, the image is automatically saved in
    your <file>Pictures</file> folder in your home folder with a file name that
    begins with <file>Screenshot</file> and includes the date and time it was
    taken.</p>
    <p>You can also hold down <key>Ctrl</key> with any of the above shortcuts
    to copy the screenshot image to the clipboard instead of saving it.</p>
