Day 22 in the 30 in 30 series is going to address a simple question that I get asked at least once a week.....How do I take a screenshot on a Chromebook? And the answer to this question is usually another question....Do you want to take a screenshot of the entire screen or just a portion of the screen? Both questions will be answered here and both require a combination of keystrokes. To take a screenshot of everything on your screen you will hold down the Control button and press the Window Switcher key (see image below). If you are looking to just grab a portion of your screen and save it as an image or have it copied to your clipboard, you will hold down Control + Shift and the Window Switcher key. Your screen will go dark and your cursor will turn into a + symbol. Click and drag the portion that you want and viola....screen chunk saved. And finally the follow up to all of this is.....well where did it go? It's actually in your downloads saved locally on your Chromebook. And how do you see them to move them to your drive? Click the App Launcher icon in the bottom-left corner of your screen. The App Launcher opens.
Locate the app icon for Files and click it. If you are looking for the
