Quick answer from a C++ coder.
Given your desire to focus on GUI stuff, I think C# would be a better choice than C++.

C++ is great for people who need to squeeze out maximum speed, but really wasn't designed for GUI stuff, and it shows.
C# has more modern elements and is much more friendly to GUI development.

I came to the conclusion a while ago that giveaways and things are just not fun for me to organize and deal with.. and as for my youtube channel, im just playing boardgames that I enjoy, I don't want to film stuff just to get viewers.  I got in line for the stream desk on the chance that there might be some non-game use for the hardware at some point, or some vr gaming developments.

If I decide not to go through with my purchase, I assume there is no way for me to give my position in line to someone else?

Yeah it's due to missing that you need to install my shared adobe extension helper library available on same github download page. I've added more clear instructions about that.

Does anyone have a thought about whether I should follow through and buy this stream deck if I don't care about gaming? My initial thought was that it was just such a cool piece of hardware that I might do some fun coding for it (possibly coding games), or doing some custom electronics hacking, etc.  But I haven't really given it much thought.

I don't know if anyone has experienced any errors printing, but I discovered that my new color laser occasionally gets mad that Screenshot Captor is not setting a title for print jobs.
I'll upload a new version this week with a bugfix.

ShareX support was put in when ShareX was mostly an uploader and not a full screenshot taker, is my memory, and before SC had imageshack uploading.

Screenshot Captor / Re: LATEST MiniCap VERSION INFO THREAD - v1.42.01 - Jun 27, 2022

« on: June 27, 2022, 10:47 PM »

v1.42.01 - June 27, 2022

• [Feature] Added -capturehwndat commandline parameter
• [Improvement] Noticed significant slow capture on some window captures, due to minicap trying to use PrintWin capture mode and failing; this mode is no longer attempted by default (see -trypwcapmode to reenable)
• [Feature] Added -trypwcapmode tells minicap to try using the PrintWindow capture mode which was used in some older version of windows for minicap older than v1.42
• [Bugfix] Sometimes printing without printer preview would fail with generic printer driver error, due to no printer document title being set.
