We’re in the process of rolling out a new app update to Snip & Sketch. Note the rollout for each change mentioned above is being handled separately, with separate random populations in the initial rollout, so seeing one of the changes with app version 10.1907.2064.0 doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll see all three. These changes are currently available for a portion of Insiders in the Fast ring as we evaluate the quality before continuing the rollout. You mentioned you loved learning about using WIN + Shift + S to take new snips any time, and we thought others would too! If you haven’t taken a snip yet, we’ll now use the canvas space in Snip & Sketch to help you learn how to start a snip without needing to open the app first. Improving WIN + Shift + S discoverability If you want to see the snip at its original size, select the zoom button and then View actual size. If you prefer keeping a small Snip & Sketch window, we’ll also zoom out to ensure the whole snip fits in the Snip & Sketch window. And yes, touch, CTRL + Plus, CTRL + Minus, and Ctrl + (Mouse wheel) are supported! You can now zoom in on your screenshots if they’re a bit too small for you to annotate on.

the option is now a toggle in settings, so you can decide which mode you prefer. Thanks everyone who’s shared feedback so far for our updated snipping experience! We really appreciate it and are starting to roll out some more improvements based on what you’ve told us:ĭo you tend to retake snips multiple times in order to get the perfect screenshot? We’re updating the New button to now open new snips in your current app window, so you don’t end up with a ton of open snips (that you then need to close.) If you’d rather keep all snips open in separate windows. We will also be rolling this update out to a small percentage of those using retail builds.Īs a reminder, this update includes single window mode and zoom support. September 19, 2019Īfter spending time in both the Fast and Slow rings, we’re starting to roll out Snip & Sketch version 10.1907 to 100 percent of Windows Insiders in the Release Preview ring.
