Adding Ctrl to this shortcut will send your screenshot to the clipboard instead. Saves a screenshot of your entire screen to your dedicated folder. I like to save them to a folder on my desktop for easy access.
By default, this location will be your desktop, but if you want to avoid accumulating receipts there, you can create a dedicated folder to keep things nice and tidy. You can find it using Spotlight search, but as you may have imagined, that’s time-consuming-better to use shortcuts.įirst, specify where to save your screenshots.
If you use a lot of screenshots, Mac comes with a Screenshot app. I use this in emails to set off important text, or text that I have questions about. Inserts indent forward (]) and indent backward ([). With text selected, this will open up a window which will allow you to paste a URL and link it to the selected words. If you have trouble finding the Fn or Function key, it is located on the bottom left corner of your keyboard. If you’ve used Windows, this shortcut is the Mac version of the Delete key.
Fn + Deleteĭeletes the text in front of the cursor. Then navigate to where you want to put it and use Cmd + V to paste it. The text will automatically be copied to the clipboard. If you want to move a chunk of text, select it by using Opt + Shift + Left/right arrow, and then cutting it using Cmd + X. Again, pairing this shortcut with Shift can allow you to select a lot of words at once without getting your hands off the keyboard.
