The touch bar is a remarkable feature of the new MacBook Pro. It is a small touch surface that is designed with dynamic options, one of which is the ability to take a screenshot of a selected portion of your screen, a selected window or an entire screen. The steps below will show you how to take a screenshot with the touch bar on your MacBook Pro.
1. Enable the screenshot button in the touch bar.
To do this, go to System Preferences > Select Keyboard > then click Customize Control Strip (the control strip is part of the Touch Bar interface). Once you've clicked on Customize Control Strip, a menu will pop up. It contains a series of options you can drag to the control strip on the touch bar. Drag the screenshot button to an area of the control strip and click done. Now you have the screenshot shortcut right on the control strip.
