SnapBuddy 0.7.0
The annotate editor is rearranged, cards can be named and saved in the format you
choose, and the saved .md now describes what you marked up.
The editor looks different
The tools moved below the picture, where your hand already is after drawing.
Colours stay on top, next to the new file name and format controls. Undo, redo, clear
and the save buttons sit under the tools.
- The tool row is a grid now, so the labels line up and it reflows sensibly when the
window is narrow. - Close is an X in the top-right corner instead of a button below the fold.
- The picture is capped a little shorter, because with controls above and below it,
"Save annotation" used to fall off the bottom of any window under about 1100px tall.
Name your files, and pick the format
There is a name box and a format picker at the top of the editor. Both stick to the
card, so Save files, Save as and auto-save all write the same name and the same
format. Leave the name blank and you get the generated one as before.
PNG, JPEG or WebP.
Ctrl/Cmd+C copies what is on screen, mid-edit
You no longer have to save first, or reach for the button. Draw the thing you want to
show someone and press Ctrl+C. Right-click on the picture still works too. Typing in the
prompt box or the hex field still copies that text, as you would expect.
The saved .md is worth pasting into a ticket now
It used to be worse than what "Copy prompt" put on your clipboard — no repro
scaffold, no annotations. Both assemblers are one thing now, so the file gets everything
the clipboard does, plus:
- What you marked up, in words:
- **arrow** (red) at 62%,40% -> 71%,46% - "this 404s".
Positions are percentages, so they still mean something at any resolution. Video marks
carry their time window. - Screenshot annotations are kept as data. They used to be flattened into the picture
and thrown away. - YAML front matter at the top, so a script or an agent can parse the card instead of
reading around it. - The image link now names the file that was actually written, which it did not once you
could rename a card or save it as a JPEG.
Fixes
- Saving no longer overwrites an earlier card. There was no existence check at all.
Harmless while every name was a timestamp; the moment you can type "bug" twice it
destroyed the first card's picture and its notes. Now you getbug (2). - Non-Latin file names work. Every Cyrillic, Greek, Japanese or Chinese name used to
collapse to the literal wordcapture— so with the bug above, every save landed on
the same two files.грешка на дугметуis nowгрешка на дугмету. - The Recordings folder setting actually works. Pointing it at another drive left
every new recording unplayable in the lightbox, while trim, GIF and burn-in all
succeeded — so it read as a broken file rather than a blocked path. - Naming a card no longer writes to a different card. Annotating a screenshot, then a
recording, seeded the name box from the screenshot and saved back to it. - "Copy prompt" reports the right card. On a recording it also names the duration
again instead of calling it a note. - A recording's redactions are no longer given away. On a video, a redact is drawn
over the player rather than burned in — the pixels stay in the file — and the.md
was printing the exact coordinates next to the filename. It now says the redaction is
cosmetic and points at "Burn in". - Ctrl+C no longer overwrites your clipboard from the board. The editor's shortcuts
kept firing after it closed. - "System audio" now says what it does — it records everyone else on a call, and
their meeting app will not show a recording indicator. - Share links are no longer written into the log file, which is the file you attach to a
support ticket. - Generated text is plain ASCII, so the
.mdstops rendering as# QA card — OPENin
older Windows tools. Your own notes are left exactly as you typed them.
Under the hood
The 60-check browser harness now runs under a real controlled browser and finished in
4.5 seconds instead of appearing to hang, and there are screenshot baselines for the six
states that have actually broken before. It went from 60 checks to 73, plus 8 on the
extension and 6 pictures.
