Taking Screenshots in iOS Simulator

I just came across this trick and thought that it is probably worth sharing with other iOS developers.

To take a screenshot in OS X, you can use the keyboard shortcut CMD-SHIFT-4

You could then use this to grab a screensnap out of the iOS Simulator, but this is a bit cumbersome.

The easier and faster way to do it is to fire up your app in the simulator, go to the EDIT menu and hold down the CONTROL key.  You can then select COPY SCREEN.

From there, you can paste it anywhere you'd like it.

Here are a couple of my screenshots from iOS Simulator:
