Chrome Screenshot Shortcuts — Complete Keyboard Hotkeys Guide

Chrome screenshot shortcuts let you capture web pages without reaching for the mouse. Operating systems provide basic shortcuts like PrtScn and Cmd+Shift, but they capture the entire screen — including browser chrome, taskbar, and other windows. Chrome DevTools offers a command-line screenshot option, but it requires opening DevTools first. The Capture Full Page extension adds dedicated keyboard shortcuts that capture only web content — full page, visible area, or selected region — and open the result directly in the built-in editor for annotation. You can then copy to clipboard or export as PDF. For a full overview of capture methods, see our complete guide to taking screenshots in Chrome. If you need scrolling screenshots, the extension handles auto-scroll automatically from a single shortcut.

3 modi per farlo

1

Method 1: Capture Full Page Extension Shortcuts

Capture Full Page supports custom keyboard shortcuts set through Chrome's extension shortcut settings. You can assign hotkeys for each capture mode — full page, visible screen, or area selection — and trigger them instantly. Each capture opens in the built-in editor with annotation tools.

  1. 1Open chrome://extensions/shortcuts in your browser.
  2. 2Find Capture Full Page in the list and assign a keyboard shortcut for each capture mode (e.g., Alt+Shift+F for full page, Alt+Shift+S for screen, Alt+Shift+A for area).
  3. 3Navigate to any web page and press your assigned shortcut.
  4. 4The screenshot is captured and opens in the editor — add arrows, text, shapes, highlights, or step numbers.
  5. 5Export as PNG, PDF, or copy to clipboard — the entire workflow is keyboard-driven.

Method 2: Chrome DevTools Screenshot Command

Chrome DevTools has a screenshot command accessible via the Command Menu. It requires multiple key presses and offers no editing.

  2. 2Press Ctrl+Shift+P (Cmd+Shift+P on Mac) to open the Command Menu.
  3. 3Type "screenshot" and select "Capture screenshot" or "Capture full size screenshot."
  4. 4A PNG is saved to Downloads — no editing, no annotation, no clipboard option.

Method 3: OS Built-in Screenshot Shortcuts

Every operating system has screenshot hotkeys, but they capture the entire screen including browser UI, taskbar, and other windows. No web-specific capture or editing.

  1. 1Windows: PrtScn (full screen to clipboard), Alt+PrtScn (active window), Win+Shift+S (Snipping Tool area).
  2. 2macOS: Cmd+Shift+3 (full screen), Cmd+Shift+4 (area), Cmd+Shift+5 (capture menu).
  3. 3Linux: PrtScn (full screen), Alt+PrtScn (window) — varies by desktop environment.
  4. 4All OS methods capture the screen, not web content — browser chrome and toolbars are included.

Domande frequenti

What is the fastest keyboard shortcut for Chrome screenshots?
The fastest method is assigning a custom hotkey to the Capture Full Page extension via chrome://extensions/shortcuts. One keypress captures the page and opens the editor instantly. OS shortcuts like PrtScn are fast but capture the entire screen, and DevTools requires opening the panel first.
Can I set custom screenshot shortcuts in Chrome?
Yes. Go to chrome://extensions/shortcuts and assign hotkeys for each Capture Full Page mode: full page capture, visible screen capture, and area selection. You can choose any key combination that isn't already assigned to another Chrome function.
Does PrtScn capture only the web page?
No. PrtScn captures the entire screen including browser tabs, address bar, bookmarks bar, taskbar, and any other visible windows. To capture only web content, use the Capture Full Page extension or Chrome DevTools screenshot command.
What keyboard shortcut takes a full page screenshot in Chrome?
Assign a shortcut to Capture Full Page's "Capture Full Page" mode in chrome://extensions/shortcuts. When pressed, the extension auto-scrolls through the entire page, handles sticky elements and lazy-loaded content, and stitches everything into one image. See our full page screenshot guide for details.
Can I take a screenshot and copy it to clipboard with a keyboard shortcut?
Yes. Trigger a capture with your assigned shortcut, then press the Copy button in the editor (or use the toolbar). The annotated screenshot is copied to your system clipboard for instant pasting into any application. See our guide on copying screenshots to clipboard.
Do Chrome screenshot shortcuts work on Mac?
Yes. Capture Full Page keyboard shortcuts work on macOS, Windows, and Linux. On Mac, you can assign shortcuts using Cmd-based combinations in chrome://extensions/shortcuts. The extension's behavior is identical across all platforms.
