How to perform screen capture??

I am having a problem that would best be sorted out with visual aids, unfortunately F360 is overriding common Winblows screen capture shortcuts  ( wipes any menus in use before the capture (ALT/ PrintScreen)) and the embedded capture function does the same.

Go to the Windows Start icon lower left of screen and click on it.

Type the word Snipping.

You should see Windows Snipping tool appear.

Click on it.

I think you can figure it out from there.

 

You could also use Autodesk Screencast.

Sometimes a video is much easier to convey information.

There should be an icon to start Screencast somewhere on your Fusion ribbon.

Screencast was discontinued December 2022. What is the suggested replacement?

Hi,

 

I use Snip but it also doesn't always get a full capture because menus close and such like.

What I also use is Shift and Windows held down then S which launches the snipping tool

but not the actual snip interface. The snip then goes on the Clipboard and can be played

with in Paint or whatever.

 

Cheers

 

Andrew

To capture screenshots easily using the Windows snipping tool shortcut, you can press and hold down the Shift and Windows keys together, then press the S key. This will activate the snipping tool, allowing you to select the area of the screen you want to capture by clicking and dragging with your mouse. Once you've selected the desired area, the snip will be automatically copied to the clipboard. From there, you can paste it into an application like Paint or any other image editing software  to edit or save it.
