Capturing a Full Screen Without the Taskbar

Use this method to capture everything (e.g., open applications, desktop icons and background) displayed on your computer screen, with the exception of the taskbar.

How to Capture a Full Screen Without the Taskbar

1. (Optional) From the Edit ribbon, click the Select profile drop-down and choose a profile.

   Note Whenever you capture an image, you do so using a profile (which is a collection of settings that are applied to the image in advance). You can use the default profile ("MyProfile") provided for you in Capture (which uses basic settings that you may not even notice), or you can create and use your own profiles. This is a good way to save time and keep your captured images consistent.

2. Open the window(s) that you want to capture and/or arrange your desktop exactly as you want it to appear in the image.

3. Select File > Capture > Capture Full Screen without Taskbar or Edit > Capture > Capture Full Screen without Taskbar.

   The image is captured and opens in the Capture Editor.

What’s Next?

After you capture or open an image, it displays in the Capture Editor. You can then do the following:

• Edit If you want to enhance the image before saving it, you can perform tasks such as drawing shapes, creating effects, adding callouts, cropping, etc. See Editing Images.
• Save If you do not want to make any enhancements to the captured image, you can simply save it. See Saving an Image.
