Some time ago I showed my mom how to use the screen capture - it turned out to be quite useful in her workflow.
-
F2/⌘E and typing “Capture” (area to Clipboard) allows me to share easy and quickly via chat and/or email client. Thanks Vivaldi.
-
The option to choose capture file name make it easier and in case you need to use it later it's quick to find. Mostly I use the screen capture as a mail attachment or inserting in a forum post.
-
Is it possible to add support for screen capture of PDF too?
It just captures the grey background now. -
@Linum It works fine for me.

I use it all the time both at home and at work. Would love it Vivaldi had screen recording (some weeks back I was in a pinch 'cause of it)

"Better yet, when you’re done you can easily save the image to your PC, upload it to Slack (if talking to colleagues) or message a friend."
And the best thing in combination with Slack is that you don't even need to store the captures on your computer, just paste them from the clipboard.

This is probably the feature of
OperaVivaldi I like most of all. I enjoy sending Dutch broadcaster NOS notification of linguistic, factual or logical errors (yes, it's true I'm afraid - it's a linguist thing). Capturing the whole page is useful and entertaining, and helps me compare original with revised version w/o actually having to make a note. Great fun! -

I like the other features from Opera to Vivaldi implement like tools option for blur, doodle over picture, write in the picture, etc.

Capturing a webpage 1:1 could also be useful…
That’s a bit too idiomatic; it means “Capturing an exact impression of a webpage”, right?

@ayespy: Oops!!! I really can't imagine how I came to write that! Of COURSE I meant Vivaldi! Must have been the sudden arrival of a relatively large new job, coincident with stomach pain. And of course years of singing the praises of Opera, somehow rising from the depths of my memory and swamping the reality, which is, as my general Eudora signature says:
Browser: Vivaldi since early 2015, currently 2.4.1455.4 (Official Build) (64-bit) since 14 February 2019
(Opera 12.18 - installed 7 June 2016 - only in reserve, FireFox finally dumped/uninstalled 8/2/16)
WordPerfect 16.0.0.428 Standard (MS Word 2013 for conversion purposes only (both licensed))
Browse with Vivaldi - Italianate flair, Nordic roots! Download it from www.vivaldi.com
If I didn't have that job to do, I'd go out and roll in the dust and have people trample me with studded army boots.
Please all delete and substitute in your minds! -

@dantesoft: Yes

@OlgaA Would you consider updating the article?

The capture feature is a great tool but unfortunately, it doesn't work on a longer github page. It captures a ~15k pixel high image of which, cca. two third is white. If I make the capture when the scrollbar is up then the bottom part of the image is white. If I scroll down, the upper part of the captured image is white.
This seems to be a bug.
I installed Screenshot Tool from the Chrome web store which captured a slightly larger picture (~17k) and it has all the details I needed.

@halmai
Hi, the capture bug is fixed in the latest snapshot (Beta) version of Vivaldi 5.3. If you can share a link to such a page I can test it.Cheers, mib
-
Hi @mib2berlin, sorry the page was a corporate github account which I am not allowed to share.
Can you tell me when the bugfix becomes available in the public version of Vivaldi (for MacOS)? I will test it after that and give you a feedback.

@halmai May be in 1–2 weeks.
