    Screenshot
    Can someone tell me how to take a screenshot on a chrome book? I’ve tried googling the answer, but none of the info I am getting works.

    Take your phone, point it at the screen, switch to camera and push the button.
    Bingo screen shot.

    Found this



    Chromebooks are inexpensive alternatives to Windows or Mac laptops. They do require a Wi-Fi connection to do most things. But those aren't the only differences. For instance, Windows users won't find a Print Scr key, which is traditionally used to take a screenshot. Instead, you'll want to learn a couple of keyboard shortcuts. Here's how.
    1. Press https://img.purch.com/o/aHR0cDovL3d3...NyZWVucy5wbmc= + Ctrl to take a screenshot of your current window.
    2. Press https://img.purch.com/o/aHR0cDovL3d3...NyZWVucy5wbmc= + Ctrl + Shift to start to take a screenshot of a partial window.
    3. Press and hold on the trackpad and drag to show the area of the partial window you want.

    4. Click the pop-up notification to open the saved screenshots.

    That was first up on the Google search. I sent the link to my friend and she said it didn’t work for her. Oh well, I tried.

    I've never played with a Chromebook outside of a store... so no direct personal experience

    Thanks anyway guys. I was asking for a friend who just got a chrome book and posted this question on her FB page. No worries.
