Thanks!

Use byronw70's suggestion. Fire up the On-Screen Keyboard, then click the "Control" key, then the "PSC" (Print screen) key. After that, open Wordpad, and "paste." You will have a screenshot then.

Lazy

My only trouble is I AM LAZY! I liked being able to simply press prt scrn or alt prtscreen. I will have to make a shortcut to the on screen keyboard - but the the keyboard will be in my screen shot - an I often need the Entire screen.

I will try it though and if it works out I will try a short cut to cut down on the steps

thanks

Tried that

Thanks for that one. I have tried that in the past (about 3 weeks ago) and it would not remap consistently. I really didn't have time to fiddle with it. For now I am using the windows keyboard which is a mediocre solution - but at least it works. I can mostly hide the keyboard on the screen so I get the majority of what I need when I need it

thanks again
Chris

Intel Mac screen capture/print screen in Windows

I'm using a macbook pro dual booted with windows.
To get a screen capture just hold Shift + Fn + F11...
If im not mistaken the bootcamp CD mentions something like this. Unfortunately I didn't pay it any mind and had to brute force key combinations to get it. Luckily i got it in less than a minute.

hope this helps
-cheers

Excellent!

That was great - I swore I tried it before with no Joy. But I did have to blow away boot camp and start over this last week so maybe I had broken that previously in some way.

anyway - thanks so much!
Chris

I'd prefer installing a utility like SnagIt or IrfanView. No strange key combinations to remember, no need to start Word(Pad), and both are available in a free version...

As a sidenote to the MBPro: It lacks some useful keys like the right Alt key or a dedicated insert key. I'm using a simple USB numeric key pad with NumLock switched off. So I get many of the special PC keys for working in Windows (Parallels). It does its job not only in Windows but also in MacOS (like PgDn without the use of Fn in Firefox).
