Navigation and shortcuts

This page lists the Temposhot sidebar destinations, the keyboard shortcut for each one, and the commands in the Capture menu.

Choose a workflow

Each sidebar destination handles one kind of task.

• Use Auto Capture when screenshots should follow a timer, with an optional keypress after each frame.
• Use Website Capture to capture a list of URLs with per-page device, wait and format settings.
• Use Action Capture to record a task click by click and edit the result as a guide.
• Use Documents to combine captures, annotate pages and export a PDF or images.
• Use Tools for one-off conversions such as merging PDFs or stitching screenshots. The same tools are also available on the website, for example Stitch Screenshots.

Sidebar layout

The sidebar groups destinations by purpose.

Group	Destination	Purpose
Capture	Auto Capture	Timed or key-driven screenshot sequences
Capture	Website Capture	One screenshot per URL from a list of web pages
Capture	Action Capture	One step per click, saved as an editable Document
Workspace	Documents	Import, arrange, annotate, frame and export pages
Tools	Tools	21 image and PDF tools that run locally
Bottom	Capture History	Saved sessions from earlier runs
Bottom	Settings	Language, export path, history size and license

When a Pro license is active, the sidebar shows Temposhot Pro.

Destination shortcuts

Destination	Shortcut
Auto Capture	Command+1
Website Capture	Command+2
Action Capture	Command+3
Documents	Command+4
Tools	Command+5
Settings	Command+,
Toggle Sidebar	Command+B

Capture History has no shortcut. Open it from the bottom of the sidebar or from the View menu.

Capture menu

The Capture menu in the menu bar controls a run without switching to the Temposhot window.

Command	Shortcut	Available when
Start Auto Capture	Shift+Command+R	No capture is running
Capture Now	Same as the Action Capture manual shortcut, default Shift+Command+2	An Action Capture run is active
Finish Capture	Command+.	A capture is running

Changing the manual capture shortcut in Configure Action Capture also changes the shortcut shown for Capture Now.

Start a new session

Choose File > New Session or press Command+N. Temposhot opens an empty session named Untitled Session, so the next run does not mix with the frames on screen.

Quit during a capture

Quitting while a capture is running opens Capture in progress. Select Keep Capturing to return to the run, or Quit Temposhot to stop it. Frames saved before quitting stay available.

Next: Screens, windows, and custom areas.
