I have Evernote for Safari installed. The Elephant icon is in my MacOSX menu bar. No matter in which browser I try to use it (or other screen app), the crosshairs behave in the same manner. That is, the tooltip suggests that I may draw a rectangle around the portion of the screen I wish to clip to a note.
Yet, no matter what I do (e.g., hold down control, hold down option, hold down command) while moving my cursor: the center of the crosshair moves with my cursor. Further, when I tap enter on my trackpad, invariably, a full shot of the app is taken as the content of the note.
I cannot detect, from the Help file, a manner in which to draw a rectangle. I would expect to be able to set one corner, move my cursor, then click the other corner diagonally opposite! (Perhaps enlarging or shrinking to adjust for fat-fingering...)
What is the purpose of the crosshairs, and which quadrant of the crosshairs is supposed to have meaning (if any)?
