LumineCapture 0.3.0

[Netflate]

New

• Redact tool: blur & pixelate
• Highlighter tool
• Shift to snap straight line (pen, highlighter, line and arrow)
• Text outline ([Feature Request] Text outline: different color #18)
• -d/--delay <seconds>
• -r ocr (Feature Request: Capture and Text Recognition in one go #3)
• -t o writes to stdout & -t r copy recognized text to primary selection (for -r ocr)
• -n/--nonotify
• general.to. Replaces save_always/accept
• Show screenshot preview in the notification when copying or pinning (No image thumbnail/preview in notification when 'save_always = false' #8):
  • On KDE for that purpose a temporary file is created, that gets deleted later
  • notifications.preview in config
• toolbar.highlight_to in config to highlight pin/copy/save set in -t (or general.to). By default its False
• Official Fedora COPR repository
• aarch64 packages (Add ARM64 builds #9)

Changed

• Every tool has its own stroke thickness (some of them were shared) ([Feature request] Make stroke thickness independent between markers #19)
• COSMIC now uses layer-shell instead of window by default (Bug: COSMIC: Dropdown in a secondary window inside an application causes the selection to choose between luminecapture and the app #16).
• Disable opening/closing animation for layer-shell KDE (Block window animations on applicable environments #4).

Fixes

• Clipboard could be empty when the app you pasted into stopped reading halfway (No Clipboard feed when image is captured #6)
• Selection background overflowing rounded corners
• OCR daemon didn't restart on settings change, and ignored --config
• Italic letters could leave pixels behind when the text was moved
• Scrolling & using stepper do not overflow recent colors history
• Holding a key while typing didn't work, and could trigger a bind
• Transparent text didn't work
• Window capture (-w) on KDE preserves the alpha channel (Active window capture should preserve the alpha channel #11)
