2022-11-24 from Mac Diary 2022 Cmd+Shift+4 to enter the clipboard

  • Cmd+Shift+4 for range selection screenshot.
  • Placed on the desktop in the default configuration
  • Adding Ctrl goes directly to the clipboard.
    • But it’s more of a hassle when I want to put it on the clipboard more often than not.
  • Replace keyboard shortcuts
    • Make sure to press Ctrl when you want to save to a file
    • image

incidentally

  • Save to “Documents” instead of “Desktop”.
    • This can be changed from the UI displayed by Cmd+Shift+5

  • I remembered that Cmd+Shift+4 can take a screenshot of a specified range, but it saves the file to the desktop.
    • Adding Ctrl goes directly to the clipboard.
      • → Touch bar to change the destination. 2018-09-13
  • I frequently forget to press Ctrl to put screenshots into the clipboard.
  • I’ve switched shortcut keys because I’m much more likely to put something on the clipboard than to save it to a file.
    • image
    • I thought the behavior used to be “save to file but also go into the clipboard”.
