Ode to the SC Popup Dialogue + Request

(1/1)

tomos:
Mouser spoke about the post capture pop-up dialogue recently as something more for beginners. I find it gives great flexibility myself - if I'm doing a batch of screenshots, I'll change the 'after capture' setting at the bottom of the dialogue to [stay minimised in tray] and choose whatever action I want for the following captures, (usually [Keep image and hide]). Afterwards I'll enable the popup dialogue again *if I remember* - as I dont know what I'll want to do with the next screenshot (often I'll just want to copy the filepath to the clipboard).

The weaklink in that workflow is re-enabling the popup which has to be done in preferences AFAICS**

An easier way to re-enable the pop-up would be very helpful for working this way.
I had been thinking of a hotkey to toggle it, but that might be problematic (is it on or off, with what settings, etc). Maybe an option to enable via systray right-click would be the best (& easiest?) way.
Even an option to disable via menu might be problematic - again, with what settings? Unless last used settings are remembered - the danger there being if [Discard] was the last option used...


**Edit
see mouser's screenshot below showing systtray menu option.
I thought it was a toggle option, but it isn't. You have to choose one of the other options (Hide/Show main form) to disable the popup. I was a bit confused by the use of the word 'Form' for the main window, but I figured it out ;-)

Thank you for the thoughtful post.
