What's changed

Linux

  • Annotation editor with arrow, box, pen, highlighter, text and pixelate, using the same keys as Windows. Click the preview to edit, or run opensnip --edit file.png. (#6)
  • Pinned images that stay on top, from the tray or opensnip --pin. (#7)
  • Global shortcuts on X11: Win+Shift+S, PrtSc, Shift+PrtSc and Ctrl+PrtSc, editable in Settings. On Wayland, bind opensnip --snip in your desktop's shortcut settings. (#8)
  • Screen recording on X11 to H.264 MP4, from the tray or opensnip --record, with optional system audio and microphone. Requires ffmpeg. (#9)
  • Window capture on X11: the window under the pointer is highlighted and a click captures it. (#5)
  • Snip gestures match Windows: F and A for monitor and full screen, Enter to confirm, Esc or right-click to cancel, arrow keys to nudge. (#10)
  • Mixed-scale monitors: snips are placed in each monitor's own pixels. (#11)
  • Magnifier matches Windows: a 15×15 pixel grid with the pixel's color and coordinate. (#12)

Fixes

  • X11 capture works when only libX11.so.6 is installed, without the development package. (#4)
  • Saving as .jpg or .jpeg writes a JPEG instead of PNG data. (#4)

Windows: OpenSnip.exe needs the .NET 9 Desktop Runtime; OpenSnip-standalone.exe does not. Linux: extract OpenSnip-linux-x64.tar.gz and run ./install.sh or ./OpenSnip.
