Hello, I want to screen only the parts of a website, which I can see on my desktop. The Katalon screenshot command will screenshot a big part of the website. It would be great if I could decide which parts of a website the screenshot should take. Greetings ---

However, you can achieve this by using Script Mode. Please refer to this [link](http://automate-apps.com/capture-screen-shot-of-partial-web-page/ "Link: http://automate-apps.com/capture-screen-shot-of-partial-web-page/") for details. Thank you for using Katalon Studio, Liam ---
