Feature

Capture Screenshots Instantly — No Clicks Required

Press Alt+Shift+S to capture the visible page, or Alt+Shift+R to select a region. Screenshots save directly to your Screenmarks library.

What It Is

Keyboard shortcuts let you capture screenshots without breaking your flow. Instead of clicking the extension icon, just press a key combination. The screenshot is saved to your Screenmarks library and processed in the background.

Why It Matters

Screenshots are useful only if the context survives. Screenmarks keeps the image connected to the source, visible text, useful title, notes, and collections so the screenshot can be found and used later instead of becoming another forgotten file.

How It Works

1

Alt+Shift+S

Capture the visible portion of the current tab.

2

Alt+Shift+R

Draw a selection to capture any region of the page.

3

Auto-saved

The screenshot lands in your Screenmarks library immediately, with background processing starting right away.
