As the title states: this combination doesn’t make the UI disappear on the screenshots I make.

[SHIFT] + [CNTRL] + [H].
This would be the correct combination.

Happy screenhunting ! ; )

I forget the actual beginner keybinds, but I went into my options and changed it myself. I use [ctrl]+[alt]+[z] for mine to make UI go away.

Thanks guys, but [shift] + [ctrl] + [h] toggles the UI (default setting).
So if I want a screenshot without it, I need to toggle it off, make screenshot and the toggle it on again.

However [shift] + [print screen] is supposed to work to remove the UI for the screenshot only – and it doesn’t for me.

I had the same problem. I found I had to first manually disable the UI with CTRL+SHIFT+H then take the screenshot separately then re-activate the UI with CTRL+SHIFT+H again to keep playing. SHIFT+PrtScr is supposed to simply take a screenshot without the UI in it, so we aren’t having to manually toggle the UI off then on again just to get a clean screenshot, but it’s not working.

No, that’s not the correct one. That simply toggles the UI offor on entirely. SHIFT+PrtScr is supposed to remove the need to toggle the UI by automatically removing the UI a split second before taking the screenshot then putting the UI back on a split second after the screenshot is taken. The issue is that it is not working.

People don’t read or pay attention.

Anyways, I reported this earlier today too.

This is either a bug or a very annoying feature.

I’m not sure. There is a setting in the keybind section that goes something like “panorama” screenshot. That setting is unset. I set it up to use Shift+PrntScn and CTRL+PrntScn and I can use it fine.

That’s probably your problem, you haven’t set it up yet. (Although I do find it as a bug that it is ‘unset’ by default.)

Where abouts is that setting?
in Keybindings, under Screenshots, I only have option for Normal and Stereoscopic screenshots. I can’t find the “panorama” option anywhere

I love taking screenshots but having to press three different key combinations in a fight is just not acceptable.
I know from other forums that there IS a key setting to make screenshot without UI!

Any word on this “take screenshot without UI” feature?

Does it work somehow now?

CTRL + SHIFT + PRNT SCRN

That takes it without the UI. You’re missing the ctrl

Despite the necroing, You can do CTRL + SHIFT + H to also remove your UI. This helps not just for screenshots but also if you want to record without UI for whatever reason
