<P>
To take a snapshot, perform the following steps:

<P>

<OL>
<LI>set your timeline insert marker where you want the snapshot &ndash; this frame shows in the compositor
</LI>
<LI>right click in an empty spot in the media folder and the popup shows snapshot as the <SPAN CLASS="MATH">7<SUP>th</SUP></SPAN> item down
</LI>
<LI>highlight that and the submenu comes up allowing you to choose png, jpg, ppm or tiff
</LI>
</OL>

<P>
The snapshot shows up in the Media folder.  
It is saved by default in <SPAN  CLASS="texttt">/tmp</SPAN> as

<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="texttt">snap_date-time.ext</SPAN> BUT you can change the default directory path in <SPAN  CLASS="texttt">Settings <!-- MATH
 $\rightarrow$
 -->
<SPAN CLASS="MATH">→</SPAN> Preferences <!-- MATH
 $\rightarrow$
 -->
<SPAN CLASS="MATH">→</SPAN> Interface tab</SPAN> in the right hand side of the Editing section.

<P>
Grabshot is the last menu item.  
A red circle reticle can be moved to the area to grab; use left mouse drag to surround an area; and right click to grab.
