Screen Capture Dialog

Used to take "screen shots" — to capture an image of the screen or a portion of the screen in a variety of graphical formats.

You can access this dialog from the following:
  • Ribbon: Drawing > Utilities > Image > Capture


Key-in: CAPTURE DIALOG
Tip: When you key in just MDL LOAD SCRNCAPT, the Screen Capture dialog does not open automatically. This makes it easier to capture screen images that do not include the dialog, using the key-in equivalents of the buttons in the dialog. It is often useful to assign these key-in equivalents to function keys.
