2. Select a video pane that is displaying video from which you want to capture a snapshot, and then perform one of the following actions:
Press the Print Scrn key.
Press the “X” key [or press the Quick Export function button ] to display the Quick Export menu (refer to Figure 39), and then select
Snapshot.
Press the “S” key [or press the Quick Search function button ] to display the Quick Search menu, and then select Snapshot.
