Google Chrome will have a built-in screenshot tool

Sharing information through screenshots is becoming more and more mainstream. This may be due to the easy annotation of screenshots and the high level of support for images on all social networks. According to Leo Varela on Reddit, Google seems to want to add screenshot sharing to the new version of the Chrome browser.

Chrome had a screenshot tool before, but it was buried in the developer tools. A new patch on Chromium Gerrit shows a new option to share web pages via screenshots, you can see the above content. However, it has not yet been implemented.

Just like the Windows system cut and paste tool, this function seems to allow you to take a screenshot of only a part of the screen, and you can also annotate the resulting screenshot. The addition of this tool will help Google Chrome catch up with some of the new features of Microsoft’s Edge browser, which already has extensive website screenshot support.
