MacOS – the correct way to take screenshot for the Mac App Store Submission

mac-appstoremacosscreen capture

I want to submit my app to the mac app store. Mac App Store is asking for the screenshot of the dimensions 1280×800, 1440×900, 2880×1800 or 2560×1600. My samsung display does not support this dimensions. If I take the screenshot using Grab and scale it to the 1280×800 dimension it is not looking great. What is the correct way to take the screen for the MAS submission?

PS: My Samsung Supported dimensions:
640×480,720×576,800×600,1024×576,1024×768,1280×960,1344×756,1344×1008,1600×900

See the docs — in the last row of the table it says:

One screenshot is required for Mac apps. Up to four additional screenshots can be uploaded. Screenshots appear on the store in the order they were uploaded in iTunes Connect. Screenshot requirements are:

  • 72 dpi, RGB, flattened, no transparency
  • High-quality JPEG or PNG image file format in the RGB color space
  • 16:10 aspect ratio
  • One of the following sizes:
    • 1280 x 800 pixels
    • 1440 x 900 pixels
    • 2880 x 1800 pixels
