What's new

Nice Shot 2.0 brings the useful parts of Sysinternals ZoomIt to the Mac — live screen modes for presenting, teaching, and explaining, alongside the existing capture tools.

  • Screen draw (⌃⇧D) — freeze the screen and draw directly on it with the full editor toolset: pen, highlighter, arrows, boxes, text, and more. Single-letter shortcuts switch tools (P pen, A arrow, B box, …), an 8-color swatch palette matches ZoomIt's, and ⌘C / ⌘S / ⌘E copy, save, or hand off to the full editor.
  • Whiteboard & blackboard — press W or K in screen draw to swap the frozen screen for a clean white or black surface for impromptu sketching. Fully undoable.
  • Frozen zoom (⌃⇧Z) — freeze the screen and magnify up to 8×. Scroll or arrow keys zoom toward the cursor, moving the mouse pans, and pressing any drawing key drops you into screen draw on the magnified view. Exports capture exactly what's on screen.

Both hotkeys are configurable in Settings, and no new permissions are needed — the existing Screen Recording grant covers everything.

Also in this release: fixed a dead zone near the screen-draw hint bar, a countdown stall during timed captures, faster multi-display snapshots, and a shared image-processing context for lower memory use.

110 unit tests passing. As before, the app is ad-hoc signed (not notarized): first launch needs right-click → Open or System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway.
