There are two ways to open the snipping tool in the Windows 7 operating system.
1. Click on the start button and search for snipping tool.
2. Select the icon from your favorites on your toolbar. I like to keep the snipping tool docked on my toolbar because I use it frequently.
A popup window will open on your computer screen
Select the type of snip that you want to make, your choices are:
Free-form Snip
Use your mouse to draw a free form around an option to take a snip. This is good for cutting out a person or a shape.
Rectangular Snip
Most snips will be made by using the rectangular snipping selection. This forms a simple rectangle to snip.
Window Snip
The window snip will select a popup window or a browser window that is open.
Full-Screen Snip
This selection captures the entire screen.
