Select whichever option best suits what you want to capture and proceed accordingly (e.g., if selecting “Selection” mode, click and drag over an area of your screen).

4. Save screenshot: Once you have captured what you wanted to save as an image file, go back into Grab’s main window and select File > Save As… from its menu bar at the top of your screen (or press Command + S). Choose where on your computer you would like to save this file (e.g., Desktop) and give it a name before clicking “Save” in order for it to be saved as an image file (.png format).
