The EMUI customization layer is full of tricks and additions, which makes it very difficult for us to know them all. Despite this, from time to time we meet a function that is peculiar to us and which, as on this occasion, seems very useful. This time it has to do with taking screenshots of parts of our Huawei mobile , which saves us intermediate steps.
Previously, we were able to learn about several methods to take screenshots with EMUI, but nevertheless little by little new functions like this one that we show you are being added. The good thing is that it can be carried out on any mobile that has EMUI 10 onwards without needing to have already made the jump to version 11 and also no step is necessary to activate this trick.
Knuckles are the key to captures in Huawei
This time the knuckles appear again on Huawei phones, we only have to prepare the knuckle of our hand and slide it vertically on the screen, which will show us a colored line with which we can choose a specific part to capture it . This is possible in applications, home screen or in settings, but nevertheless it cannot be used in the application drawer or in some specific sections of EMUI due to limitations.
Sometimes we have to be patient, because it is difficult for him to recognize the knuckle, especially if we have a screen protector. You do not need to press or do it fast, you just have to take the morning to do it. In case we have the gestures on the screen activated, it will not be more complicated but it is also possible.
Options to capture areas of the screen.
As we are going to show you in the images, once we have completed the capture of an area in Huawei we do not have to worry if it has not come out completely straight. Once the form is closed, a tab will open where we can edit it to give it a square, round or even heart-shaped format. Huawei has thought of everything and allows us to do all of this, combining it with drawings and geometric shapes if we want to explain a process to someone.
Then we just have to save it to see it in our gallery or share it directly through the different means available. A fast, comfortable and simple way that saves us having to take captures and then cut them one by one.
