Hi Gary. Thank you once again for a video that showed me things I never knew about my Mac, even though I thought I "knew" everything. Here is an addition to this particular tutorial: for some reason, the circle shape comes down as an which you may not want. If the oval shape is selected (it will have blue dots all around it) then holding the Shift key while you move one of the corner blue dots will force it into a perfect circle. Likewise, with the line or arrow tool if you grab one end of the line or arrow (when selected) and holding the Shift key down, it will force it to perfectly vertical, horizontal or 45°. I hope this helps. Thank you again for your wonderful videos!

Mac screenshot tool is so complicated to use, and I'm a Mac loyalist. The "copy" missing from it is a huge, intentional oversight. Windows screenshot tool is so simple to take a picture, make some scribbles, then decide to copy or save it. I can't believe something on Windows is easier than on Mac, but in this case, it 100 times true.
@macmost2 жыл бұрын
If you want to save it, then the method I show is exactly what you want: screenshot, scribble, save. If you want to copy it, set Save To to "Clipboard" or select an area and Command+C. Right to clipboard. If you want to do screenshot-markup-clipboard, one way is to set the Save To to "Preview" and then take a screenshot, it opens in Preview. Then you can markup, select all, copy and close.
@nickp47932 жыл бұрын
@@macmost Its too many keystrokes. And if your last screenshot was save instead of save to clipboard, the next will revert to it. On windows, you take the screenshot, then you can scribble, and a huge copy/save button is visible. I take screenshots all day at my dayjob using Windows, annotate them, and then paste into powerpoint or one note. When I come home on the mac and try to do the same, I want to smash the computer. I'm about to spend $40 on a screenshot tool because the built in one is so cumbersome. I appreciate you video, however.

@@macmost Here is another caveat: when on my M1 Air, if I select save so the icon of the picture floats on the bottom right of the screen, there is both the sketch tool and the draw tool. However on my M1 Ultra, there is only the sketch tool. Its little inconsistencies like this that make this screenshot tool so cumbersome. Another one is the icons at the top are so tiny, and they all look so similar. You can barely even tell when one is selected. This has been an issue going back nearly 20 years, staring in the Preview application, and now extending to the screenshot application. Apple's UX dept completely missed the boat on this user interface, IMO. Another caveat, to do the command C to get the picture to copy/paste into a ppt document, your mouse has to be in a specific place in the picture for it to copy. The whole thing is just bad.

Now, take a screenshot using any of the keyboard shortcuts, such as Shift+Command+4. Notice the floating thumbnail will no longer show, because the screenshot is placed onto the clipboard, ready to be pasted. Then, paste it in any app you are working with. One drawback of this method is that MAC does not give me a chance to markup the screenshot before pasting it to my app. Hope this helps.

Previously you just started drawing. Then after drawing on a screenshot you cmd + c or right click copy and paste the image only to not have the annotations and just the original image. I think I just figured it out. If you draw on an image, you need to then click on the top toolbar area, then click back to the image and copy paste it. I don’t remember ever having to do any of the above actions before. It “just worked”.

There's no more System Preferences!!!!!!! I'm losing my mind trying to figure this out.

Do you mean that it changed to System Settings (in 2022). See kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGixmZyuiZqdoZY

I know you know a lot but why is it so difficult to just draw an arrow on a screen shot on a Mac?
@macmost Жыл бұрын
Not sure how to answer that question. It isn't hard. Just click the markup tools button, click the shape tools button and choose arrow. The arrow appears. Now position as you like.

@@macmost Thank you for replying. I know it is user error. I don't even see the markup tools or shape button tools. With mac's typical user friendly methodology Im just surprised that those feature do not automatically populate - seems like they would. But alas that is why I am not a tech person. Again thank you for your reply and the video.

Hi Gary, your videos are wonderful sources of knowledge. I like your developed app very much. Do you mind making a video about screen annotation on Mac and advice where to find a simple tool like in video kzbin.info/www/bejne/jV7Me52jnJmri9U , pls navigate to time stamp 1:29 for the 3 simple buttons tool. Thank you so much my friend!

I don't know what you are talking about. The video you linked to is a news report of some kind and I don't see anything at that time that relates to screen annotation.

Mate, apart from the fact there's no 'Markup' in here (you seem to misunderstand what that is), this stuff is so basic I think anyone who buys a Mac is probably well capable of working this out within a couple of minutes.

Love your tutorials! So simple yet comprehensive, thank you for your work! I wanted to know if there is a way to use Preview to create a box around the text, with the text being in-between the box as opposed to inside it? This is a bit complicated to explain, so here's a reference: drive.google.com/file/d/1N7NGK8qkz-TUKa_95Q3ULs_2Xxb8uKx2/view?usp=sharing If yes, I'd love to know how! Thanks again!

I'm not sure which part of that example you are trying to create, but you can do it all in Preview if you really try. But it would be easier to use a graphics app or Pages or something. Using Preview for precise document creation it is probably the wrong tool for that.
