Teach724 0 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Is it possible to add a screenshot to an existing note? I figured out how to take a screenshot and have it added to a new note. I want to add 2 screenshots to the same note but can't figure out how. Is this possible? Thanks Jeannine Link to comment

The process is device specific - what device/platform do you use On my Mac, I can just right click where I want to insert a screenshot I also grab screenshots, saved to my desktop or Evernote Helper I can just drag them into a note Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,066 Posted April 4, 2017 Level 5* Share Posted April 4, 2017 In Windows I can either merge the original note with my new screen shot note, or I can take a screen shot to the desktop and treat the file like any other image and drag it to the original note anywhere I choose.

Win+Shift+S does nothing when I try it. And I don't see it listed here: https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/209004807 Is this a custom shortcut? If not, what's the context in which you're using it? Globally in Windows or with EN Windows app active? Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,066 Posted April 5, 2017 Level 5* Share Posted April 5, 2017 Hi. I believe that's the screencap default shortcut from Tools > Options > Shortcuts - I changed my key combination because of conflicts. It only works when Evernote is running. Link to comment

In addition to what gaz said, right click on the Evernote notification icon, and look for the Clip Screenshot entry. Pre Win 10, the default was Win+PrtScn, but with Win 10, Windows has taken over that combination, so Evernote switched the default to Win+Shift+S. 1 Link to comment

d1234abc 1 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 In Mac 7.5 the "Capture Selection from Screen" appears to be missing from the right-click menu within a note (see below). I can't find it anywhere else. I use it all the time so this is a bummer. Clicking "Import Image" freezes Evernote for me. Does anyone know if "Capture Selection from Screen" has been moved? Thanks.

You might check the settings in Apple > System Preferences Link to comment
d1234abc 1 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Thanks. That option appears to be missing for me in Mojave. Link to comment
BrightHomesRE 31 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I am running Apple High Sierra and using 7.5 Evernote. The screen capture seems to be working fine. Link to comment
d1234abc 1 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Thank you. I've put in a support ticket and they are looking into it. Link to comment
Jae Task 0 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 This option is also missing for me in Mojave Link to comment
Ex Employees Scott T. 662 Posted November 9, 2018 Ex Employees Share Posted November 9, 2018 I just checked our bug backlog and this issue was reported by our internal testers. Unfortunately, It appears there was a change in Mojave that broke the functionality, so it was removed. I don't have information on whether another option will be implemented. Link to comment
akrde 19 Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Saving screenshots for using them in other programs seems to be a real hassle in Evernote (Windows version): Step 1: Right click on Evernote icon to start "Clip Screenshot" Step 2: Click and drag to clip a portion of the screen Step 3: Evernote opens the screenclip in an annotation window (which i don't need every time) Step 4: Click on X to close the annotation window Step 5: Open Evernote and navigate to Inbox folder Step 6: Open screenclip note Step 7: Right click on screenclip to save it on my desktop Why are so many steps needed when using Evernote's screen capture tool?

CoreyCutler 0 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 None of these solutions are practical for 'on the fly' cutting and pasting. Win+PrtScrn does not appear to work. Windows Snipping tool and the newer snip/search tool do not appear to work either - Any new suggestions??? Link to comment

You're trolling a 3-year old post for a previous version of the app. Please let us know what device and Evernote version you have and what image you're trying to copy... Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,808 Posted December 13, 2021 Level 5 Share Posted December 13, 2021 The EN helper (both for legacy and v10) has screen clipping tools. Crosshairs, window, screen, and can create a new note from it. The legacy helper can be set up to start as autostart object. The v10 helper starts when the EN app is started. Link to comment
