Today’s Quick Tip….
How to quickly take a full-page screenshot with Firefox
As you probably, capturing a screenshot of an entire web page without scrolling typically requires the use of a browser extension, but if you use Firefox you can do it with just a couple of mouse clicks – and without the aid of a third-party extension.
Want to give it a try? Just follow the steps below:
1 – Open the page you want to take a screenshot of in your Firefox browser.
2 – Right-click on any blank area of the page and select Take Screenshot from the drop-down menu.
You should now see a rectangular box containing two options in the top-right corner of the Firefox window.
3 – Select the Save full page option to create a screenshot image of the entire web page, including the parts of the page that aren’t currently in view.
If you only want to screenshot the part of the page that’s currently in view, select the Save visible option.
If you want to select a specific region of the visible part of the page you can do that as well by following the instructions detailed in the center of the screen.
That’s all there is to it. Now you know how to quickly and easily capture a screenshot with Firefox.
