How do you do a screen shot in a Mac?
 

I have a customer who needs help and he's using a mac and I know nothing about macs.

So I want him to do a screen shot of what his problem is and email it to me, but I dont know if macs have a Prnt Scrn button and a wordpad or paint program you can paste into.

thanks

Those be them...

Actually in this instance OS X does a much better job at feature implementation. The control you get over screen shotting different aspects of the screen rather than just the entire thing is fantastic.

I use it every day for screen shotting dev stuff to send out to the team I manage :)

....of course they do.

You can also go to /Applications/Utilities/Grab.app if you can't remember all of the commands. You can take screen caps from the app itself.

i cant remember all the ones Sosa posted so i just use SHIFT-COMMAND-3 and take it from there heh

Grab is what I use. :2 cents:
