It’s crazy cool – it drops the image below the first one but you can grab it and drag it around so it’s on top of the original snap.

Have you ever made a screen snapshot and wished you could add another shot to the same image? In the Monosnap tool, there’s a little camera in the upper left with a plus on it and it does exactly that. The cool part of Monosnap is you don’t have to remember all these keystrokes because they show on screen when you start any snap. When you start a snap, one of the options shown is to use option click to record a window, or just option alone to record an area. There are even more options available to you on this initial snap. I even installed a separate app at one time to do only that.

You may never need something like this, but for web developers and artists, being able to copy a hex code is really useful. If you invoke Monosnap and hover over a color you want, you can simply hit command-c and it copies that hex code into your clipboard. Remember we could see the hex code for the color before we snap. Monosnap gives you a 5-second countdown which I think is a perfect amount of time. This is really handy if you’re trying to record a pulldown menu for example. It also says if you hold down the command key, you’ll get a delayed snap. There’s a little popup that tells you to simply click if you want to snap a window. Let’s say we’re doing the standard free-form snap invoking Monosnap with command-option-5. One more thing comes up while you’re taking a snap and that’s a list of key options you can hold down to change the snap as you make it.

Monosnap also shows the hex code of the color over which you’re hovering before you click and drag. This is really cool to me because I’m often trying to take two screenshots for the blog that are the same size. Once you click and start to drag, you get a real-time readout of the area you’re covering. In case this is helpful, it also shows you the exact coordinates of where your cursor is located on screen before you click. With Monosnap, when you start to take a screenshot, you not only get a set of crosshairs that go top to bottom and left to right on the screen (which is great) but the corner you’re grabbing even shows a little zoomed-up area to show you exactly where you’re grabbing. When you take a screenshot, sometimes it’s a little bit tricky to grab exactly what you want on screen. That’s sort of the minimum we require from one of these apps. You can pull down on the menubar app to invoke them, or you can use keystrokes and the keystrokes can be changed in preferences.

Monosnap can do the usual tricks of capturing an area, a window, or full screen. On the Mac, Monosnap installs as a menubar app, which for this kind of tool is really the best way.

Monosnap is available for free for the Mac and Windows and has an in-app purchase option that seems useful enough that this could be a viable business. As useful as that is, the annotation tools are really limited.Ĭlaus Wolf tipped me off to what might be an even better app called Monosnap, from. Its big advantage is that it allows you to instantly upload to the web and copy the URL to your clipboard so you can insert the screenshot into any place that only allows text. I’ve most recently told you about TeamPaper Snap which is a somewhat limited, but still useful menubar app for screenshots. You know I’m a fiend for taking screenshots and annotating them.
