It's your uniqueness. Thanks for sharing with the world..

@francem3312 18 күн бұрын

This was great. It's a total timesaver to edit the screenshot right in the snipping tool. Normally, I would do most of that in word as I tend to edit a lot of training docs with screenshots for visuals.

@rsnowdozer 22 күн бұрын

Many thanks Leila... I got the ruler back. 🥰 Regarding your little problem with the text, it's possible to have a macro running in the "worksheet_change" sub where code detects which cell was modified and erase the cell content. A second option would be to use conditional formatting to set the color to white as soon as a cell is modified. In this case the content would not be really discarded but it can generate a panic effect on beginners. 😉

@LeilaGharani 22 күн бұрын

Yes. The RULER ☺ I like both suggestions. The real reason was guessed by Geert :) Cell formatting ;;; to hide all values.

I've used the Snipping Tool often in Windows 10, but not since I recently upgraded my system to Windows 11, so this video is very useful and I've a learnt a lot of new tricks! However, right clicking a screenshot image it doesn't offer Visual Search, though it is available on images viewed in Edge browser. A minor niggle, but yet another excellent tutorial from you Leila! 👍

Hey Leila, I love your videos especially about the different office programm. Could you maybe make a video about how to most effectivly use Outlook contacts? For anyone in sails it is crucial inport contacts quickly and how to manage them. Specific Questions I have for example: How to digitize Contacts from business cards, If you type it in by hand how to setup a Company for example so you can add a contact quick through autofilling. How to use groups and categories properly. Aka how to manage contacts in Outlook like a pro? Thank you so much.

@pt3470 22 күн бұрын

Very helpful, especially the video recording option and text extraction. Would be great if the update also included a counter option (used for creating manuals) and an option to obfuscate an area of the screenshot (not just email and phone numbers).

Wow, so cool! I hadn't been paying much attention to the Snipping Tool because it stopped responding to Shift-Win-S several months ago. I could get it to open, but I had to do it via the Start menu, and the extra steps for getting to where I could take a screen shot had me just falling back on Shift-PrtSc to copy the current window to the clipboard, pasting it into Paint and saving it as a JPG. I tried to fix it, but working with Snipping Tool's options made no difference, so I just ignored it. Because of your video, I tried PrtSc, Shift-PrtSc and Shift-Win-S again, and I was thrilled to find that not only is it responding to all the hotkeys again, but I have the updated Snipping Tool you just demonstrated. I think I will celebrate by making the "Here's How To Get A Screen Share Started" video that my remote support tool has never made!

Maybe excel isn't the best example as it has its own way. How about any other software window. Other screenshot tools identify scroll and weave the image together (Snagit calls it panorama). Is that possible in Snipping Tool.

Hi Leila, Thank you very much and greetings from Ottawa. I have a question: Is it possible to annotate text directly in the Snipping Tool instead of using freehand writing, so I don't have to edit the picture in Paint? Additionally, I can't see the emoji button even though I have the latest version!
