Snapok
Window & UI element capture

Point at anything. The selection snaps to it.

Most screenshot tools give you a crosshair and leave the edges to you. Snapok reads the interface under your cursor and outlines the real control: a whole window, one panel inside it, a single button, the Dock, or one menu bar item.

Snaps to real UI components

With Accessibility enabled, Snapok detects individual controls and panels in other apps. Without it, window selection and manual dragging still work.

Scroll to grow or shrink

Scroll up to step out to the parent region, down to step back in. Hold ⌥ to jump straight to the whole window or system container.

Pixel-accurate edges

The magnifier shows cursor coordinates and the RGB value under it. Nudge the selection with the arrow keys, or Shift for 10-point steps.

A selection frame you can style

Choose the frame color, thickness, and solid, dashed, or dotted lines in Settings. It never appears in exported images.

How to screenshot a specific window or element

  1. 1Press ⌃⌘A (or your own shortcut).
  2. 2Hover over the window, panel, or button. The highlight follows your cursor.
  3. 3Scroll to adjust the level, or hold ⌥ for the full window.
  4. 4Click to select, then press Return or ⌘C to copy, or ⌘S to save a PNG.

Frequently asked questions

Why does Snapok ask for Accessibility permission?

It lets Snapok see the structure of other apps so it can outline individual buttons and panels, and find the Dock. It’s optional; everything else works without it.

Can I change the capture shortcut?

Yes. ⌃⌘A is the default; record any combination in Settings → General.

Does it work on multiple displays and Retina screens?

Captures are exported at the original pixel resolution of the display they were taken on.
