Screenshot Captor: Improved Arrows
« on: September 07, 2011, 11:53 AM »
I'm trying to improve the labeled arrows a bit by adding some options for arrow positioning and background coloring:

Hope this is some consolation for people who haven't been satisfied with the current arrow options.

And more improvement to come.
I think the next minor thing for arrow text i'd like to add is make it easy to do multi-line captions for arrows.

@mouser: Thanks. I don't use SC much, but when I do I usually want to place arrows/labels onto the image, so this improvement will probably make the results that much nicer.   :Thmbsup:

I like this new arrow-options very much, thanks mouser.

What do you think about some new arrow-forms?

I'm afraid adding custom arrows is not quite as simple as you might think; it's not like clipart.
