I wish to take multiple screenshots to put into a presentation, but the Screenshot application closes after each area selection screenshot. How do I take multiple screenshots without the application closing each time?



(This feature is available in Windows 10's Snippet tool, so I expect it to exist in Ubuntu.)

  • I thought a workaround would be 'gnome-screenshot -c -a -d 5' in terminal, but I am met with the error, "Conflicting options: --area and --delay should not be used at the same time.". I do not understand why these options are regarded as conflicting; it seemed better than using the Screenshot GUI, since I could just up-arrow, Enter to repeat ...

It doesn't look like Screenshot can do that, but you can use shutter instead:



sudo apt-get install shutter

    Here is a workaround: Ctrl+Alt+T to open Terminal, man gnome-screenshot to learn about the command; gnome-screenshot -i to quickly open the Screenshot GUI; Ctrl+C (within Terminal) to terminate the process after copying the screenshot to clipboard; up arrow, Enter to quickly execute the command again for another screenshot. This saves time compared to opening Screenshot from Launcher each time.

      There's also a list of keyboard shortcuts you can utilize:



      PrtSc Save a screenshot of the entire screen
      Shift + PrtSc Save a screenshot of a specific region
      Alt + PrtSc Save a screenshot of the current window



      Ctrl + PrtSc Copy the screenshot of the entire screen to the clipboard
      Shift + Ctrl + PrtSc Copy the screenshot of a specific region to the clipboard
      Ctrl + Alt + PrtSc Copy the screenshot of the current window to the clipboard



      (Sadly, for some reason I can't get copy to clipboard shortcuts to work )
