Custom shortcut to "mate-screenshot -a"
I have just figured out that there is a screenshot key on my keyboard, which is fn + insert (which has a camera icon on it)...
So in order to achieve it, I use:
fn + Shift + insert
This will open this dialog box:
It is one step more than using mate-screenshot -a
, yet - it works.
You simply add a custom shortcut via the MATE Keyboard shortcuts settings app:
- Open shortcuts window: System->Preferences->Hardware->Keyboard Shortcuts
-
Create new shortcut: Click the Add button. Set the name you like e.g.
Area Screenshot
and set the Command tomate-screenshot -a
. Then click Apply - Set the screenshot you want: Double click where it says Disabled and press your preferred Key combo, e.g. "Ctrl+T"
Done!
