How to take a long screenshot on a Mac
In Clipture Pro, select the page region, enter scrolling capture and click Start. Scroll down manually, click Done, then inspect and save the stitched image.

Open the page and let its content finish loading. Keep the window and capture width unchanged. The app needs screen recording permission; check Accessibility if the app requests it for the target window or scroll region.
In the app
- Open scrolling capture from Clipture’s menu bar or its configured shortcut, and choose the area to keep. Leave unrelated sidebars outside the region.
- Click Start before scrolling. Move down gradually in the original application, keeping enough overlapping content between screenfuls. You control the scroll; Clipture samples and stitches the screen.
- Click Done after the content you need. Inspect the top, middle and bottom of the long image for gaps, duplicates or alignment errors.
- Copy, save or pin the result. Confirm a saved file opens correctly before sharing or closing the result.

If the result is not right
- Missing or repeated sections: let dynamic content load first and try a smaller area or a steadier scrolling pace.
- Fixed headers or sticky bars: adjust the capture region to exclude them when possible. Page layout can still affect stitching.
- No captured image: check screen recording permission, then retry. Pro access does not grant macOS permissions.
- A webpage working does not establish compatibility with every chat app or document editor. Test the target application before an important capture.
