I use Greenshot at work and it's great, but for certain use cases, I think Firefox's inbuilt screenshot tool is awesome. Because it's inbuilt, you can select individual elements of a webpage! My colleague recently shared this discovery with me.

Any other handy tools people would like to share?
CTRL+Shift+P opens my printers?
I do have full page screen capture extension for Chrome. Is there one that can do webpage sections/elements?
I think what @JimmyF is referring to is the Chrome DevTools menu
1) Ctrl + Shift + I
2) Ctrl + Shift + P
3) Type "screenshot" and you'll have a few options available as to differing screenshot types
This is a manual process however
Whoops, sorry, missed the first bit, yet Ctrl + Shift + I first, then Ctrl + Shift + P :)
This is a manual process however
It is, but many extensions around to automagic it ;)
whats wrong with "snipping tool"?
Nothing. Just can't do the thing I explained in my OP
+1 on Greenshot
Snipping Tool is nothing compared to Greenshot
Awesome screenshot minus on chrome works for me when I have to take scrolling screenshots. snip tool otherwise.
Did not know this existed. I've been doing it the hard way, cut and paste screenshot to GIMP. cut what I want and new from clipboard…
Here, have an upvote… :D
Greenshot is great too!
Thanks OP…..
Chrome has something similar, but hidden a bit more
Press Ctrl-Shift-P (or Cmd-Shift-P on a Mac).Type the word screenshot. Select the one you want to do.
Or just add an extension to do it for you :)
