I actually didn’t know that, Thank You.
If you want to convert a .heic file to .jpg, there’s a quick action to do so, just right click on the .heic file(s).

A new nugget for me. I was dealing with a really long markdown text in iA Writer with footnotes on the botton of the document. Moving to and back the footnote block was a pain until I learned that if I select the footnote text markup ([^27]) and then kit ⌘E, then ⌘G, the cursor would move to the next instance of that word on the text, which, for a markdown footnote block should match [^27]:. Selecting this text and moving back to the very point on the main body text is just a matter of hitting ⌘G again.
This is used in a bunch of other apps as well, since it uses a native API many text editors for macOS use.

I really love the Screenshot feature which I am using several times per day.
It also can record videos and it’s very easy to setup the save location, to change the record mode.
Would recommend!
You can activate with Cmd + Shift + 5.

I had kind of forgotten about this feature but it was recently surfaced by John Gruber: through accessibility settings you can configure the shortcut “CTRL+mouse scroll” to quickly zoom the screen. I have been using it for years and it works like a charm. I even sometimes use it instead of the proper Powerpoint zoom menu option, which happens to be always in a different ribbon than the one I’m in.

In the max screen sharing up, if you connect to another Mac using the high resolution option you can choose to connect to a virtual display.
Very handy when you are connect to a Mac with 2 monitors. It ignores the actual physical monitors and just shades back the 1 virtual screen. So much easier from a laptop.

If I’m not wrong, it does’t work in Zoom teleconference software.
Say I’m sharing my screen in Zoom. Then I pressed Control Scroll to zoom into a part of the slides. My listeners on the other side said they didn’t notice anything different even though, to me, I’ve magnified certain part of the PPT. That was something that happened to me a few years ago and I’ve not used this since. Has this changed?
Correct. It’s a display zoom. Consider it as if it’s happening at the hardware level. You still have the same sized screen with the same contents, but you have a giant magnifying glass in front of the screen.
