We show five ways to capture menus, tooltips, dropdowns, and hover states before they disappear: the 5- or 10-second `Cmd+Shift+5` timer, window capture with `Cmd+Shift+4` then `Space`, full-screen `Cmd+Shift+3`, delayed Terminal `screencapture`, and LazyScreenshots’ configurable delayed capture. The comparison covers hover support, auto-cropping, timers, and difficulty. Our tool captures without dismissing the UI, then supports cropping, annotation, and pasting into Claude, Cursor, or ChatGPT for $29 one-time.
