Please note that when you are capturing the main view only or all views, you can choose in the dropdown menu View screenshot resolution [5] and select from Display resolution, 2x, 3x or 4x. Selecting 2x, it will double the screenshot resolution, 3x, triple it and 4x, quadruple it. In case the ‘’Main view’’ is used, the taskbar and the Main Toolbar will be removed from the full screenshot and the resolution will change accordingly, removing this space.
