    Can you use Snip and Sketch without creating new window?


    One of the annoyances of the Snip and Sketch tool is that every time you snip it creates a new window instead of overwriting / reusing the window that is open.

    Are there any settings which uses the same window for each snip - behavior like the Snipping Tool?

    Thanks

    Use the key combination of Windows key and Shift and S, allows capturing any portion you select of the screen. Only need the full program for other features. To access clips use Windows key and V.

    Sure, there is a setting

    Turn On or Off Single Window Mode in Snip & Sketch app in Windows 10

    That's useful to know, thanks

    Unfortunately we are out of date on this one as a previous version is installed and we are unable to update due to IT rules but will keep this in mind when we finally get an upgrade.
