Good morning from Maryland. The new screenshot utility is a thoughtful addition, but it has proven to be worse than the original workflows were for me. I used a tenkeyless keyboard, and have a macropad with 4 buttons and a twist knob from array peripherals. I mapped the twist knob to activate screenshot of selected area and copy to clipboard. Meaning I could click in the wheel, and it would pop up with the plus sign mouse icon, where I could simply drag and release, and it would take the screenshot and save to my clipboard.
Update: Shift + Ctrl + PrtSc no longer works with the new screenshot feature. I was at least able to confirm that my custom hotkey is still mapped properly, its the command that isn’t working like it does here.
Old workflow:
- click wheel and plus mouse appears to select (Shift + Ctrl + PrtSc)
- drag to select screenshot (screenshot is auto-saved to clipboard)
- paste screenshot anywhere
- repeat steps 1-3 for more screenshots
Since the new update, the knob no longer works. I cannot find the correct combination of keys to make it work how I liked either, especially since I don’t have a prtscn button on my keyboard. The new workflow requires that I do this:
- press super key
- type screenshot
- open new screenshot utility tool
- select “selection”
- select “take screenshot”
- drag to select and release
- click copy to clipboard
- hit cancel
- repeat steps 4-8 for next screenshot.
Furthermore, since the newest update VIA doesn’t deploy for me when I try to remap the keys of my macro. Maybe this is all related?
