Secret Techniques New Screen Capture Settings on Mac

2023/7/22 Edited to

... Read moreถ้าคุณแคปหน้าจอ Mac หรือ MacBook บ่อยๆ แนะนำให้ลองใช้ “หน้าตั้งค่า Screenshot” แบบใหม่ของ macOS เพราะมันรวมทุกอย่างไว้ในแถบเดียว ทำให้แคปเร็วขึ้นมาก (ไม่ต้องจำคีย์ลัดหลายอันก็ยังทำได้) 1) เปิดแถบเครื่องมือแคปหน้าจอ (Screenshot Toolbar) วิธีที่ผมใช้ประจำคือกด Shift + Command + 5 จะขึ้นแถบเครื่องมือด้านล่างจอทันที จากตรงนี้คุณจะเลือกได้เลยว่าจะ “แคปทั้งจอ”, “แคปหน้าต่าง”, หรือ “แคปเฉพาะพื้นที่” รวมถึงโหมด “อัดหน้าจอ” ด้วย 2) ตั้งค่าพื้นที่แคปให้เป็นแพตเทิร์นเดิม ถ้าคุณต้องแคปตำแหน่งเดิมซ้ำๆ (เช่น ทำคู่มือ/ทำงานส่ง) ให้เลือกแคปแบบ “เฉพาะพื้นที่” แล้วลากกรอบให้พอดี จากนั้นครั้งต่อไป macOS จะจำกรอบล่าสุดไว้ ทำให้กดแคปซ้ำได้ไวมาก 3) ตั้งเวลา (Timer) ถ่ายภาพหน้าจอ ในเมนู Options จะมี Timer ให้เลือก เช่น 5 วินาที หรือ 10 วินาที ผมชอบใช้ตอนต้องแคปเมนูที่ต้องเอาเมาส์ไปชี้ค้างไว้ หรือแคปหน้าต่างที่ต้องเตรียมหลายขั้นตอน ตั้งเวลาแล้วค่อยจัดหน้าจอให้พร้อม ช่วยลดพลาดได้เยอะ 4) เลือกที่บันทึกไฟล์และจัดระเบียบงาน เข้า Options แล้วเลือก Save to ได้ เช่น Desktop, Documents, Clipboard หรือเลือก Other Location เพื่อกำหนดโฟลเดอร์เอง แนะนำให้ทำโฟลเดอร์ “Screenshots” แยกไว้ จะไม่ทำให้เดสก์ท็อปรก และหาไฟล์ screenshot macbook ง่ายขึ้น 5) คัดลอกไปคลิปบอร์ดทันที (สำหรับส่งงานเร็ว) ถ้าคุณแคปแล้วต้องเอาไปวางในแชท/อีเมลทันที เลือก Save to: Clipboard หรือกด Control ค้างตอนแคป (บางโหมด) เพื่อให้ได้ภาพอยู่ในคลิปบอร์ด จากนั้น Command + V วางได้เลย เร็วกว่าการเซฟเป็นไฟล์แล้วแนบใหม่มาก 6) ตัวเลือกที่ทำให้ภาพดูโปรขึ้น ใน Options ยังมี “Show Floating Thumbnail” (พรีวิวลอยมุมจอ) ผมเปิดไว้เวลาอยากครอป/มาร์กอัปเร็วๆ แต่ถ้าคุณต้องแคปต่อเนื่องรัวๆ แนะนำปิด เพราะพรีวิวลอยอาจบังจอหรือทำให้จังหวะช้าลง 7) ถ้าอยากได้ฟีเจอร์เพิ่มแบบ Snagit บน Mac เครื่องมือใน macOS เพียงพอสำหรับงานทั่วไป แต่ถ้าคุณต้องการใส่ลูกศร/เบลอข้อมูล/ทำเทมเพลต/จัดการภาพจำนวนมากแบบจริงจัง ค่อยพิจารณา Snagit Mac เป็นตัวเสริม (สายทำคู่มือจะชอบ) แต่สำหรับการแคปหน้าจอ macbook ทั่วไป แถบ Screenshot ที่มากับเครื่องเอาอยู่เลย ทริคสุดท้ายของผม: ถ้าคุณลืมว่าตอนนี้ตั้งบันทึกไว้ที่ไหน ให้กด Shift + Command + 5 แล้วเข้า Options เช็คที่ Save to ก่อน แก้ปัญหา “แคปแล้วไฟล์หาย” ได้ทันที
