How to take a selected-area screenshot, so that it's copied to the clipboard automatically once it's selected? (exactly like Win+Shift+S on Windows, but I need it for Android) This will enable me to quickly —*saving tremendous time & pain (when I need to reuse this a lot)*— paste it within any note-taking application (like Squid ). **Motive** I use *Squid* a lot in split-screen-view with a book reader app (like ezPDF ) and many times, I need to take selected-area-screenshot of a part from a book to drop it in my note paper in Squid where I'm taking notes. One way to do this is to use Samsung's Smart Select , then share the selected-area screenshot to Squid. This unfortunately forces opening Squid in full screen (which destroys the split-screen view, so I need to waste time again to set the split-screen view of the two apps). Also, in Squid, it forces creating a new separate useless note (not the one I'm working with, so I need to waste time again re-navigating to my original note after copying my captured selected-area screenshot to the clipboard and then deleting the useless note). This wastes a lot of time.
