Hi Ham Radio,
I was wondering what I would type in, using your ingenious FF technique, in FF to just capture a screen shot of what I see on a website using FF?
Instead of typing in ... screenshot --fullpage ...would I type in screenshot --just this screen?
Thank you so much!

Just typing in screenshot should work.

Worked perfectly just typing in ...screenshot.
Thank you again for all your kind and much appreciated help.

Hi Hamradio,
I typed in help screenshot in that command bar which appears when you press Shift/F2 in FF but I didn't see exactly who I control where the copied screenshot can be saved - even to clipboard so I could open it in Paint and then save it to a folder I select at that time.
I was interested in ....
One - saving the captured content to a specific folder while using the Shift/F2 function (so it's not automatic once I press the Return key but rather so I can instead choose which folder in Windows I want the content saved to and ...
Two - how I can save the captured content to clipboard and then open Paint to save it in a different format than .png and to a folder of my choice at that time.
This is such a great way of saving content so I very much appreciate all your help.

For one you can do it but I dont think you can select the folder instead you have to type in the path before the filename I believe.
For two you would just type: screenshot --clipboard

I just tried screenshot --clipboard and that works well.
When I type in (without quotes) C:\ or c: it says it can't recognize that so I'm not sure how users could designate a certain folder each time they did a screenshot capture. Ex. C:\Photos, then the next screen capture C:\Pets, etc.
I may have to just use the clipboard.
Thanks so much.
