We all know that Alt+Print Scrn copies the active window to the clipboard. Here’s a trick that saves me a lot of time. When entering a bug in Team Foundation Server that requires a screen shot, I copy the window, open MSPAINT.exe, save to temp directory, then attach that file on the work item. Or, on Windows 7 I use the snipping tool.
But not only is this a giant pain in the ass, it’s a huge waste of time. I stumbled across this little tidbit that I had to share. Alt+Print Scrn copies the value to the clipboard. Then just press Ctrl+V (Paste) in the Work Item window, and the screen shot is automatically attached!
Saved me tons of time and I feel a little less like an idiot.
