Google Chrome is a great browser and one of the most popular ones on the market. It has a lot of features and makes it easy to take screenshots. Here are some tips on how to do it in Google Chrome:

  1. Open Google Chrome and click on the three lines in the top left corner of the window. This will open a menu with different options.
  2. In the left-hand menu, select “Screenshots.”
  3. Click on “Take screenshot.” You will be asked for your name, address, and other information. After you have provided these, Google Chrome will take a screenshot of your screen and save it to your computer’s hard drive or to your Google Drive account if you have one.

Taking screenshots on the desktop is simple enough on Windows and Mac, but if you just want to take a screenshot of your current Chrome tab, why not do it with Chrome? We’ll show you how it works.

Google has been working on a screenshot tool for Chrome on the desktop for a while. Version 98 made the tool available through a feature flag. It’s still a bit rough around the edges, but it does work. Let’s take a look.

First, open the Chrome browser on your computer, type chrome://flags  in the address bar, and hit Enter.

Search for “screenshot” and enable the flags titled “Desktop Screenshots” and “Desktop Screenshots Edit Mode.”

After enabling the flags, click the “Relaunch” button at the bottom of the screen to apply the changes.

Once the browser has re-opened, navigate to a page you would like to screenshot. Click the share icon on the right side of the address bar.

Select “Screenshot” from the pop-up menu.

As mentioned, this is still a work in progress. The screen may dim and you can drag the mouse to select an area to screenshot, or it will take a screenshot of the entire screen right away.

A pop-up will appear after the screenshot has been taken. You have the option to tap “Edit” to open the screenshot editor or “Download” the screenshot.

The screenshot is also automatically copied to your clipboard, so you can paste it anywhere you’d like immediately. The screenshot editor has all the basic tools you’d expect, such as crop, draw, and text.

That’s all there is to it! This is a nifty little feature for easily taking and editing screenshots in Chrome. The editor window is especially nice since you don’t need to put the screenshot in another app to make changes. Chrome has plenty of little features like this to know about.
