Select any of them, and if you are using anything except fullscreen clip, you can select an area of which you want to take a screenshot. Hold the left key while doing it. This will minimize the interface, and offer you a floating toolset where you can choose to use a rectangular clip or freeform clip or fullscreen clip. Once it appears, you will be welcomed with the message – ‘Capture, mark up, and share any image’. Click on the Snip and Sketch app once it appears. The app is available under App list or you can search for Snip & Sketch in the Cortana Search box. In this guide, I will share how to use Snip and Sketch app to capture and annotate screenshots in Windows 10.
This tool offers similar functionality and can be used to take screenshots, use tools like a pen or pencil to draw on it, and share it wherever you want. However, if you go further in the weeds and open apps like Device Manager and Disk Management, you’re brought to a user interface that’s from 2001, and it’s these applications that deserve the same attention as Snipping Tool and Calculator and that power users can also appreciate.Īs we head closer to the rumored release date of October, it’s going to be up to users who are testing Windows 11 to keep sending this feedback to Microsoft, as the company is clearly listening, and giving us confidence that Windows and its apps are long overdue for a makeover.In Windows 10, Microsoft has introduced a new app ‘ Snip & Sketch‘ which is replacing the popular Snipping Tool.
With the new Snipping Tool and the useful shortcut in taking a screenshot, there are now many more apps that look as though they’re part of Windows 11. It had far fewer features and didn’t give enough customization options when you would take a screenshot.įortunately, Microsoft is clearly listening to its users as development on Windows 11 ramps up, with more cohesion for which app does what, alongside how it looks for the new Fluent design that’s also coming to the new upgrade.
Windows users were up in arms over the fact that the simpler Snip and Sketch app would replace Snipping Tool. Snipping Tool is the focus in this post, with a new shortcut of Windows + Shift + S that now takes a screenshot of the whole desktop and saves it into a folder. In a blogpost (opens in new tab), Microsoft laid out the changes to these apps, where there are more rounded corners alongside a color scheme that can match the theme that you’ve picked for Windows 11.
However, it’s Calculator, Calendar, Mail and Snipping Tool that are the main selling points for this build, all seeing a refreshed design that further matches the Fluent design language of Windows 11.
