v1.1.1
8f45a58

A reliability and privacy release. If you use the v1.1.0 AppImage, please update: in 1.1.0 it couldn't register shortcuts, enable the GNOME extension, take over PrtSc or run OCR.

Made by Shaurya Shakya.

Fixed

  • AppImage: system tools (gsettings, gnome-extensions, Tesseract, wl-copy) work again, and the X11 libraries Qt needs are now included
  • Blur is now a true redaction: nothing of the hidden text survives (the old mosaic could be reversed)
  • Copy to clipboard works on Wayland (it silently failed when the thumbnail wasn't focused). Needs wl-clipboard
  • Windows: a shortcut containing + no longer freezes the app at startup; more keys work as shortcuts
  • Markup: Done waits for "Hide private info"; editors no longer pile up in memory; Copy text reads what you see
  • Thumbnails: one being edited, dragged or pinned is never closed by a new screenshot; edited shots stay until you use them
  • PrtSc: taken only when enabled, and given back exactly as it was
  • Hide private info catches more (split OTPs, "OTP 4821", ID numbers, API keys) and no longer blurs times, dates, IPs or amounts
  • Private temp folder, single-instance lock, multi-monitor stacking, faster OCR, many smaller fixes

New

  • Markup tools: Ellipse (E), Pen (P), Spotlight (S), plus copy text from an area (X)

Install

  • Windows: scoop bucket add snapfloat https://github.com/shaurya-8055/scoop-bucket then scoop install snapfloat (quit SnapFloat before scoop update), or download SnapFloat.exe below
  • Linux: download SnapFloat-x86_64.AppImage, chmod +x it and run it; on GNOME log out and back in once. For OCR and the clipboard: sudo apt install tesseract-ocr wl-clipboard

Full details in the README. Windows support has had little testing; please report problems.
