Request - Red Box Capture Click
« on: March 13, 2009, 01:37 PM »
LOVE Screenshot Captor, except just one annoyance.  Don't make me go to the keyboard to perform a red box capture.  When we have the box around the area we want, just a click to save.  Not ctrl+click, or ctrl key(especially not the right ctrl, since that's the one i'd have to move off the mouse to use).  Or, make it an option to select the key/click combo. 
Thanks!

Good idea, seconded! I think just clicking is fine for normal redbox capture now we can cancel by pressing ESC.

Aw, with the big update, was hoping this'd come through.  No can do?

it can't be that just a click triggers it -- the reason is that redbox mode is designed to let you keep interacting with the target window before you capture -- that means letting you click to trigger menus, etc.
