Hi Nate, unfortunatelly I'm not familiar with MacOS but is good to know it offers similar function. You understood right, my goal is to quickly have that region I crop on my hard drive and at the same time on clipboard for a miscelaneous usage cases. I don't see as a clutter at all since, just for instance, many programs apply compression on the pictures after paste. Eg, whatsapp messenger. CherryTree when resizing after paste and so on. Having a centralized, full quality, date organized of all the screenshots I took seems like a very good practice and still uses so little of nowadays storages devices. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
