Shutter als Linux-Alternative zu Snipping Tool
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
Shutter is a strong, feature-rich replacement for the Snipping Tool, particularly for users who need more than basic captures. It handles full-screen, window, and region shots with a built-in editor that includes text, arrows, and blur. The delayed capture feature is useful for dropdowns, and keyboard shortcuts make it quick to launch. However, Shutter is heavier than the lightweight Windows tool. If you want a simple, no-frills utility, Shutter might feel like overkill, but its annotation and upload capabilities make it a complete package for most Linux users.

Ihre Snipping Tool-Dateien öffnen
Snipping Tool screenshots are standard image files (PNG or JPEG), which Shutter can open and re-edit without issue. There is no proprietary format conflict. If you have existing annotated screenshots from Windows, you can import them into Shutter to add more annotations or convert them to PDF. No special conversion tools are needed for basic image files.
