Taking screenshots of Calman

When troubleshooting, Calman support may ask for screenshots illustrating an issue. It can be difficult to evaluate these if they are not taken with the operating system’s native screenshot tool.


Windows 10

Using the Snip & Sketch app (Windows 10 v1809 and later).

The Snip & Sketch tool allows you to easily annotate the screenshot after capture

  1. Open Start.
  2. Search for Snip & Sketch, click the top result to open the application.
  3. Click the New button in the top-left corner.
  4. Select the type of snip you want to use, we recommend:
    1. Window Clip of the Calman window
    2. Fullscreen Clip with Calman in the foreground
  5. Take the screenshot. Once you snip an area of your screen the snipped image is added to your clipboard and you can paste it immediately in another app. A screen prompt will also allow you to annotate, save or share it using the Snip & Sketch app.
