Screen Capture? Venue 8 7000 Series

I have tried the Power button and down volume buttons but for my unit this doesn't seem to work. Is anyone able to take screen captures with their Venue 8 7000 series? Thanks

Hi ajvdbg,

Thanks for your post!

Have you tried pressing the power and home button together to take a screenshot?

You'll need to press the buttons at the exact same time. If you press the buttons correctly, you'll hear camera shutter sound and the screen will flash for a moment.  Now the screenshot has been saved in the Gallery in a "Screenshot" folder. You'll also see a notification in the Status bar at the top.

Regards,
Robert

Just figured it out

Press the volume down a split second before  pressing the power button,  then it will screen capture,

Your welcome

I tried all of the above, and still get nothing. The most that happens is the tablet turns off :emotion-6:

I do hear a click, but then screens turns off and stays that way till I power it up again.
