Guild Wars 2

Whenever I go to take a screenshot and I use key bindings for the hide ui and take a screenshot function, it never works, and the ui is never hidden. I do know there is a separate hide ui function, but it was still to my knowledge that the hide ui and take a picture function was still in the game. I know this worked in the last public beta event, and I wasn’t sure if this was a feature that was removed or if it’s just bugged.

As a side note, I play on fullscreen windowed mode, and I wasn’t sure if that had anything to do with it either.

So are you saying CTRL+Shift+H isn’t working for you, or are you saying your special keybind stopped working and you cannot remember the standard way?

As Shaileya mentioned. It has always been CTRL+Shift+H to hide the UI for screenshots.

The control shift H is working for me, but there is supposed to be a key binding that took a screenshot and hid the ui in the screenshot without you having to manually hide the UI, and it was my impression that this feature was still in the game, and I had used it previously in the beta to take screenshots. I just wasn’t sure if this feature had been removed, or if it was bugged.

OK so I know I’m reviving a v old topic but yeah according to this wiki article:

… Ctrl-Shift-PrintScreen is supposed to take a screenshot without the UI but as with the original poster, it doesn’t seem to work.

Ctrl-Shift-H to toggle the UI does work tho

Here is my Guardian. Made the armor just last night. my armor was a surprise, I had no idea using the Intricate insignia would make different looking armor then the lesser versions of the insignia.

My new Evil look=)

I realise I’m a little late to this thread, but does anyone know if they will re-institute this function with the ctrl-shift-prtsc?

Because that would be awesome, or provide a function that allows me to have it automatically remove the HUD in the screen shots.

I doubt it, it’s been many years.

I believe some create a key-bind/macro for it, though.

Either way, it’s only 2 clicks.

As this thread has run its course, we’re going to go ahead and lock it.
