your computer screen. When the Screen Clipping tool is active, a transparent white over-
lay appears on the screen. Drag with your mouse (or pen, if you’re using a Tablet PC) to
define the area you want to “clip.” As you drag, the white overlay becomes clear in the
area you define. When you release the mouse button or lift the pen, the selected area is
clipped.
