Choose the right WebShoot capture mode

Capture the visible page, the full page or one element based on the evidence you need.

Visible page

Use this mode when the current viewport is the important context, such as a layout bug at a particular browser size. Set the scroll position first and dismiss unrelated overlays if they are not part of the issue. The capture should show what another person needs to recognize the state.

Entire page

Use full-page capture for long documentation or a content review. Scroll-and-stitch workflows can encounter sticky elements and content that loads during scrolling. Inspect the saved PNG from top to bottom for repeated headers, missing sections or seams.

Selected element

Use element capture when one card, panel or section is the subject. Choose a containing element that includes the necessary title and state. A crop that removes the surrounding explanation can be less useful than a slightly larger screenshot.
