Microsoft Edge has a new web capture feature in testing. The feature makes it easy to capture and share a portion of a webpage. The feature was first spotted by Aggiornamenti Lumia, which shared a video of the feature in action.

Web capture appears to be in A/B testing. As pointed out by OnMSFT, the feature isn't rolling out to all Microsoft Edge Canary users.

You can access the feature by opening the ellipsis menu on Microsoft Edge and selecting "Web Capture." The interface of the feature is similar to that of Windows 10's built-in snipping tool.
