I am able to take a snipit of a portion of my window using shift+cmd+4. It saves onto my desktop but not to my clipboard. I want to be able to paste the snipit to my oneNote or word document

• To copy a screenshot to the Clipboard, press and hold the Control key while you take the screenshot. You can then paste the screenshot somewhere else. Or use Universal Clipboard to paste it on another Apple device.

—Copy it off the Desktop once the screen shot is complete

—Drag and drop the copy where ever you want it

—Try the Shift Command 5>Options
