cross-hair - you then draw a rectangle around the area you want to capture:
it still saves you a "picture 1" file on your startup disk

This should work for most macs.
I've used dozens of multi-monitor macs and com/shift F4 worked on all of them.

Com/shift F3 seems to take a picture of the monitor with the apple menu so if you change your menu to the second monitor then thats the one it will capture.

This may work on your primary monitor

Hello

Command/Shift - 3 takes an image of your screen. Every time I take a
shot, it takes one of the second monitor and not the primary monitor
(with the apple menu etc.). Is there any way to fix this?

Thanks
