How do I screen capture just one element of my computer?

I know there is a keyboard shortcut for it (Hold Command, Shift, and 4 keys, then press the Spacebar), but it doesn't work for me. Additionally, I can't find an option to adjust it in my Keyboard settings in my System Preferences. How can I turn this feature on or figure out the keyboard shortcut for it?

⌘ Shift 4 = Select to Capture to png. Shows measurements by curser.
⌘ Shift 4 then press space-bar = a shot of a single window & drop shadow
⌘ Shift 3 = Capture screen to png.
The pngs are put on the desktop.
Use control at the same time and just copy to clip board.
Check the Utility Grab for more Options.

  • FCC: Receiver: Just one element filled -- create txt-File

    Hi everybody,
    we got a message-interface with just one element <content>texttexttexttext</content>
    We want to use FCC to create a text-File.
    How do the parameters have to look?
    regards Mario

    Hi,
    go through this blog and do FCC as per your data.
    /people/arpit.seth/blog/2005/06/02/file-receiver-with-content-conversion
    I think it will be better if you could send the exect data, which you are gona to create a text file by using Receiver FCC. There should be some separation in between the text, otherwise how u will decide the fieldSeparator in FCC.

  • How to change font in just one column of JTable

    I have a table with 4 column.
    I want to have Courier font in column number 2, and Arial in columns number 1, 3 and 4.
    With:
    table.setFont(new Font("Courier New", Font.PLAIN, 12));
    I can set fonts in all columns but how to set font in just one column.
    Thanks
    Srdan

    Hi,
    there are 2 methods of JTable where every rendering resp. editing component "comes" through - prepareRenderer(...) and prepareEditor(....) - by overwriting this methods and calling its super method first you get the component and can manipulate it before you return it. This component is exactly that, what is used for rendering resp. editing afterwards.

  • How do I screen capture an internet page to copy to a file?

    I am recently trying to adjust to a Mac system from PC.  Simple Question... How can I screen capture an internet page to copy it to a file?

    To screen-capture a window so you can paste the captured impage, press Shift-Control-Command-4, and when your cursor appears as a crosshair, press the Space Bar and it will turn into a small camera icon. With this, place the cursor over the window you would like to capture and then click. Now the image will be on your clipboard, so you can paste it wherever.
    However, screenshots take the image of what you see on-screen. If you would like to capture the entire Web page content only, then your best bet would be to print it to a PDF file. To do this, press Command-P and in the print dialogue that opens, choose the option to save the PDF to a file from the PDF menu.

  • How to apply a fade to all video, not just one element.

    Hi. Ignorant here. New to FCP X and pretty new to video editing.  I'm doing green screen stuff and I want to fade everything up from black. Trying to match the speed of the transitions is tough.  I'm assuming there's a function to control the whole video component, not just per element...'Little help?
    Thanks.

    Thanks Tom.  Yep, that works.  That was my next go-to but I'm reticent to create compound clips as I'd imagine there's a lack of individual control at that point.  Perhaps that just makes one plan one's workflow. I was hoping there was another way but hey, compound clips are easy to work with and can always be separated when you need to manipulate them individually.  Thanks much.

  • I can insert images in gmail. However, I cannot insert a screen capture on one computer when I can on another. So I think its the way I have Firefox setup...but I don't know how to change it.

    In gmail I enabled insert images. I can now copy/paste an image....but not a screen capture. I'm using the same process to capture the screen shot and paste as I do in Word. It works on one computer...but not another.

    Move the cursor to the very top of the screen, maybe push up a bit. The main menubar should then appear. All the way to the right should be a bright blue icon - click it, and the Safari window should revert to 'normal' size.
    Pressing Command-Control-F should accomplish the same thing.
    Once it is back to normal size, click and hold on the top portion of the Safari window and drag to left or right to place it where you want it to be. Once you leave it there, the next time you open Safari it should open its window in normal size at that place.
    If you need to re-size the window a bit, you can click-and-hold on the bottom-right corner of the window and drag to resize it.

  • How to Improve Screen Captures?

    I just downloaded Flash Professional CS5 to try it out.  I have no experience with this but I have a general idea of the basics, tween, frames etc.  My goal and interest is to be able to make small animations to enhance screen capture videos.
    I started by capturing 5 minutes of Screen Action on my computer.  I converted from WMV to Fla and brought it into Flash.  I brought it in to the time line thinking Flash would make lots of key frames to handle all the changes between frames that were within the video.  Instead all I got was a solid gray box from one end to the other indicating content with no changes!
    I would now like to erase some black lines on a white background in the original video and make changes to them.  I find if I go to the middle of the time line I can insert a keyframe but changes can not be made.
    Is this something I should be able to do with Flash CS5?
    Bob

    Ok,
    I have discovered that what I want to do can be done in Flash CS5.  I can play the video in a time line under my animation.  I need to be able to create an animation layer that can match the exact speed and location of action in the underlying video.  For example we will say in the video there is a pen moving for 10 frames or so.  In the animation layer I want to exactly match the speed of the pen with a line that is created at the tip of the pen (but in another layer).
    See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xme5-l8DU0g to get an idea of what I am hoping to be able to do.
    All ideas on this are appreciated.  I just need a general idea how to start.

  • How do I listen to just one album in a box set?

    If I load a large box set of CDs into iTunes, I seem to have one of two choices for how to click 'play'.  One is to click the master play button, which starts the box set on CD1, track1.  The other is to click on one of the tracks in the box set - usually track1 if I want to hear that particular CD.  The problem is that neither of these options allows me to listen to one CD by itself - with iTunes stopping after the CD is finished.  It just rolls into the next CD and keeps playing.
    Album view is cool in that it plays an album just like a CD - ie, iTunes stops after the album is done.
    But the box set feature doesn't seem to allow this.  Wherever you click from, it will play through to the end of the box set.
    Has anyone figured out how to play just one CD in iTunes when it's part of a large box set?

    Thanks for the reply, Curt.  Sounds like you're aware of what I'm saying and that you're not aware of a way to do it either.  Yep, I know about changing the album name and then having all 40 different albums from a boxed set in album view, all with the same artwork.  That doesn't work for me.
    I don't think boxset-view (or whatever we call it) is really effective unless there is both a master play button at the top of iTunes to play through the whole box ... AND dedicated play buttons next to each album - which will allow each album to be heard individually.
    That, to me, is a common-sense feature that's long overdue.  I guess there are not enough boxset users for iTunes developers to make that a priority.
    I was just asking if anyone knew how to do it ... some button I'm not aware of or something.

  • Is it possible for me to screen capture from one desktop while working on another desktop?

    I would like to use QuickTime screen capture feature on Mountain Lion to record a video from Desktop 1, while working separately on Desktop 2. However, QuickTime records this by following my movements to Desktop 2 and then recording what I am doing in Desktop 2. Is there any way around this (either using Quick Time or perhaps a different program/software)?
    Thanks

    No.

  • How do I bring back just one file?

    I have been using Time Machine for years. Now, I want to find just one or two photos. I think the photos are in one of the past iPhoto librarys but when I try to access the library I get a message that I cannot because it's not the current iPhoto library or something like that? Should I just restore that entire time machine set and go from there. I am only trying to bring back one or two photos.
    How do I do this?

    You can't disable the screen capture. You just have to be more careful if you are holding down on the two buttons at the same time for whatever reason.
