How to Capture a Full-Page Screenshot in Nimbus Screenshot Without the Browser Toolbar
Choose Nimbus’s Entire page mode to capture the webpage beyond the fold. Here’s how it differs from a visible-area capture and a browser-window capture.
To capture a full webpage in Nimbus Screenshot without the browser toolbar, open the Nimbus extension menu and choose Entire page. This captures the webpage beyond the part currently on screen; Visible part of page captures only the current viewport.
The available Nimbus documentation describes webpage capture, not a separate setting for hiding browser chrome. So the practical answer is that choosing Entire page captures the webpage rather than a browser window; do not look for a dedicated “hide toolbar” switch.
Capture the entire page in Nimbus
- Open the webpage you want to capture.
- Click the Nimbus Screenshot extension button, or open its menu using the method available in your installed browser version.
- Choose Entire page. Avoid Visible part of page if you need content below the fold.
- Wait for the capture to finish. Nimbus documentation describes an editor appearing after capture; review or edit the result, then choose a save or share option available in your version.
Nimbus documents the extension for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge. Some editor features or save destinations may depend on the browser or plan, so use the options shown in your installed version.
Choose the right capture mode
| Goal | Mode or method | What it captures |
|---|---|---|
| Capture the webpage from top to bottom | Nimbus Entire page | The whole webpage, including content below the fold. |
| Capture only what is currently visible | Nimbus Visible part of page | The on-screen portion only. |
| Capture a portion of the page | Nimbus Capture fragment or selection modes | A selected region; Nimbus also describes a “Selected and Scroll” option for scrollable selections. |
| Capture another active program window | Nimbus Browser window, where available | A browser window or, in documented Chrome/Chromium contexts, another active program. This is distinct from capturing an entire webpage. |
For a full document, use Entire page. Fragment and selection modes are intended for a region or scrollable selection; they are not a promise that every nested scrolling panel will be captured as part of the full page.
What “without the browser toolbar” means
A webpage capture targets page content, while a browser-window capture targets a window. That distinction is why Entire page is the appropriate Nimbus mode when you want the page rather than the surrounding browser interface. This is an inference from the documented capture modes, not a separately documented Nimbus toolbar-removal control.
If your result includes browser interface elements, check that you selected Entire page rather than a browser-window or screen capture mode. The available documentation does not promise exclusion of every possible browser UI element in every browser version.
Firefox’s built-in full-page screenshot option
If you use Firefox and do not need Nimbus’s editor and save/share workflow, Firefox also documents a native full-page screenshot option:
- Open Firefox Settings and find Available Toolbox Buttons.
- Enable Take a screenshot of the entire page.
- Click the screenshot button to capture the full webpage. Mozilla says the image is saved to Downloads.
Mozilla also documents a Web Console command, :screenshot --fullpage, for saving the full webpage beyond the current window bounds. See Mozilla Support for Firefox’s screenshot instructions. Nimbus’s own guide covers its extension across Chrome, Firefox, and Edge, while Firefox’s native workflow requires enabling its button.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Likely cause | What to try |
|---|---|---|
| The image stops at the visible area | Visible part of page was selected. | Open Nimbus and choose Entire page. |
| The browser toolbar appears in the result | A browser-window or screen capture mode may have been used instead of webpage capture. | Repeat with Nimbus Entire page. Nimbus documentation does not establish a separate hide-toolbar setting. |
| A section inside the page is missing | The content may be in a nested scrollable panel or may load dynamically. | Try Nimbus’s fragment or scrollable-selection modes for that region. The documented options do not guarantee capture of every nested scrolling case. |
| You cannot find Firefox’s full-page button | The button must be enabled from the toolbox buttons in Settings. | Open Settings, locate Available Toolbox Buttons, and enable Take a screenshot of the entire page. |
| A save or editing option is unavailable | Options can vary by browser version or Nimbus plan. | Use the save destinations shown after capture in your installed version; do not assume every feature is available on every plan. |
Or skip the browser setup
If you need a webpage capture from a script or service, ScreenshotNeo provides a screenshot API and MCP server. A single GET request can return an image or PDF. For the API parameters and options, see the ScreenshotNeo documentation.
curl -G "https://api.screenshotneo.com/v1/shot" -d access_key=YOUR_API_KEY --data-urlencode url=https://stripe.com -o shot.webp
import requests
r = requests.get("https://api.screenshotneo.com/v1/shot", params={"access_key": "YOUR_API_KEY", "url": "https://stripe.com"}, timeout=90)
open("shot.webp", "wb").write(r.content)
const q = new URLSearchParams({ access_key: 'YOUR_API_KEY', url: 'https://stripe.com' });
const res = await fetch(`https://api.screenshotneo.com/v1/shot?${q}`);
Replace the example URL with the webpage you want. ScreenshotNeo removes supported cookie and consent banners, newsletter popups, and chat widgets before capture. Bot checks, blank pages, failed loads, timeouts, and cache hits are not billed, and response headers identify the page verdict and billing status. Its MCP server lets AI agents use screenshot tools. The free plan includes 1,000 screenshots a month with no card; paid plans start at $5 for 3,000 screenshots.

FAQ
Does Nimbus have a dedicated hide-toolbar option?
The reviewed documentation describes capture modes but does not establish a dedicated hide-toolbar control. Use Entire page to capture the webpage rather than a browser window.
Does “Entire page” include content below the fold?
Yes. Nimbus describes it as the whole page. Visible part of page is the mode for the current on-screen portion.
Can I use Nimbus for a selected region instead?
Yes. Nimbus documents fragment and selection modes, including a scrollable-selection option. Those modes address a selected area rather than the whole webpage.
Is Firefox’s native screenshot available in other browsers?
The cited native workflow is Firefox-specific. Nimbus’s extension guide covers Chrome, Firefox, and Edge.
