If you're taking votes, my first choice is to keep the border completely opaque. My second choice is to have a user-definable "difference" between the transparency of the border vs. the inner-color, instead of hard-coding a difference of e.g. 100.

I tried my test case again, and would want an inner-color transparency of 50, but with the border at 150 (50 + 100) I don't think it's quite bold enough; I'd want at least 200.

Request:

Can we get an option to set highlighting rectangle transparency separately for the border and the inner-color? Or perhaps better yet, have transparency apply only to the inner color and not the border?

Here's what I'm seeing: I'm applying a highlighting rectangle to a screen-cap of a command-window, with white text on a black border. I have a red border color selected and a yellow inner color. I'm trying to highlight some of the text. Because the transparency option applies equally to both the border and the inner-color, I have two choices:

a] the inner color is nearly opaque (rendering the text "under" it impossible to read), but the border stands out nicely

-or-

b] the inner color is nearly transparent, yielding a very nice highlighted effect, but the border is nearly invisible.

Thanks

Screenshot Captor / Re: 2.18.01 CTRL-D hotkey

Ctrl-Q is a nice touch. But it would be nicer if...it could optionally minimize the app at the same time.

So, I'd grab a capture, then edit to my heart's content, then copy to clipboard (Ctrl-C). Now I'm done with the image and with ScreenShot Captor for the moment, so I press Ctrl-Q and it deletes the image and minimizes the app.

Brilliant!   :tellme:

Oh, sorry, had one more thought. With LButtonDrag enabled, it's odd to see the grid overlay appear when I click (or double-click) on the upper-left corner of my windows to either drop-down the window menu, or close the window.

You could fix this by adding a brief delay - LButton has to be held down for 1 second before enabling the GridMove functions. Or, by making sure the X mouse position is also Greater Than the CaptionSize (in addition to checking if the Y mouse pos is > CaptionSize...)

Thanks jgp. Yes, I had the ScreenWidth set wrong. I interpreted your comment earlier:
if you have 2 screens with different resolutions, set the parameters to the biggest height and biggest width
to mean I should set these to the largest height and width of any single screen. Changing so ScreenWidth & ScreenHeight points to the point at the bottom right of my overall screen area fixes that problem.
