Now if we run this and I try to capture some text that's in several lines like this, it's actually going to combine them together putting a new line between each. Spaces might work great if you're capturing paragraphs of text. What am I going to use to combine these? I can use New Line, Spaces, or any Custom characters. It's going to correctly say, okay I'm going to grab the results of the last action. I'm going to double click there to add it and it will combine text from the image. If you look at the info for it we see it joins the text together, inserting a separator between each join. Let's look over here and we can see that under text there's also combined text. So I actually have five different elements that have been captured by Extract Text. If I switch to List View you could see it took every line of text and placed it in a separate item in what's called a List, an array of elements. I can use the arrow here to go through the different lines. But in fact if you look closely it says Page one of five. You could see it only seems to show the first line. I'm actually going to select the text here on the right side of the screen. Now let's take a look at what happens if we run this and select more than one line of text. I'll grab this bit of text that's on the screen and you could see the result is actually text taken from the screenshot in the first set. It will automatically link the results of the first action to the second action. So we double click on that to add that next. So we can see here if we just search for text we can find one here that is Extract Text From Image. Now let's search for a way to get the text from the image. Then you can see it captures that and puts that in an image. So if I actually try this out by using the Play button here you could see it gives me the crosshairs and I can select something. First I have to go into Show More and change from Window to Custom. This will allow me to select an area on the screen instead of capturing the entire screen.

Then where it says take full screenshot I want to change that to Take Interactive Screenshot. So let's just search for Capture here and there's Take Screenshot. I'm going to start off here by doing a screen capture.

I'm going to click on the Plus button to create a new shortcut. So I'm in the Shortcuts App here in macOS Monterey.
