# Capture bar

The **Capture Bar** is a vertical strip of capture buttons on the right edge of
the editor. It lets you start your next capture without leaving the editor —
no trip to the menu bar or a global hotkey.

## Buttons

| Button | What it starts |
|--------|----------------|
| **Region** | A region capture — see [Area Capture](/docs/hypershot/capturing/area-capture) |
| **Window** | A window capture — see [Window Capture](/docs/hypershot/capturing/window-capture) |
| **Screen** | A full-screen capture — see [Screen Capture](/docs/hypershot/capturing/screen-capture) |
| **Scrolling** | A scrolling capture — see [Scrolling Capture](/docs/hypershot/capturing/scrolling-capture) |
| **Scan Codes** | Freeze every screen and find QR codes / barcodes — see [QR Scanning](/docs/hypershot/capturing/qr-scanning) |
| **Delayed** | A delayed capture — pop out the button to choose **Region**, **Screen**, or **Window** |

**Delayed** is a split button: click it to start the default delayed region
capture, or pop it out to pick the delayed mode first.

If the editor has unsaved changes when you start a capture, hypershot asks you
to save or discard, then continues into the capture.
