You can assign a key in control options to take one. Default used to be V

As the previous poster stated, press the " V " key and a Prepar3d folder will show up in your pictures folder library with all the pictures you take. Good thing is they are of great quality too, not compressed down.

I think he means how does he add a picture to his post. I'm not sure how to do it, but maybe you do? 🙂

Edit: Or maybe not, just ignore me.

Awesome, thank you Pete - I needed imgur 🙂 to post pics here, for some reason my google drive link wouldn't work.

Cheers,

In Windows 10 now you can also press the Windows key +shift +S and you will be able to drag your mouse to capture any part of any screen, simulator or other application, to the Windows clipboard.  Then you can paste that clipboard content into another application as desired.  Photo editing program, Word, Notepad, email, and some websites.  Super easy.  And the image size is much less than a sim screen capture.

Like this (partial screen image is intentional for illustration purposes):

here is  another  tip  if  you  just  want  to   take  a  small pic  of  your  issues   and  not  the  whole  pic  you  can use  the  tool  "snipping  tool",  type  it  in  your   search box  at the bottom once  you clicked  on it  a  small box  will appear  where   you  can resixe it  and  write  comments  on it  as well as  arrows  to high light  the  issues  drag  the  arrows   around the  area  you  want  save  it  to  your  desk  top  folder  than use  the link i gave  to post it
