How to take a screenshot on Chrome OS

The screenshot creation scheme in Chromebooks (and every device running ChromeOS) differs from the usual schemes in Android and iPad due to the presence of special unique keys.

To take a screenshot of the entire screen, simultaneously hold down the keys Ctrl + .

To take a snapshot of the selected portion of the screen, press ⇧ Shift + Ctrl + . After that, the cursor will change to a cross, which means you need to select the area of the screen that will be included in the snapshot.
