S3-compatible uploads — upload screenshots and videos to AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, MinIO, DigitalOcean Spaces, Backblaze B2, and other S3-compatible services. Configure endpoint, credentials, bucket, and public URL in Preferences.
Quick Capture shortcut (Cmd+Shift+S) — select area and instantly save/copy without the annotation toolbar. Same as right-click drag, but as a global hotkey.
Capture OCR shortcut (Cmd+Shift+T) — select area and immediately extract text via OCR. No toolbar, straight to the OCR results window.
Space-to-reposition mid-drag — hold Space while drawing any shape or selection to reposition it without changing its size. Standard design tool behavior (Photoshop, Figma, Sketch).
Save button quick-save — left-click Save now instantly saves to the configured folder. Right-click for "Save As..." dialog. Context menu indicator triangle shown on button.
Hide menu bar icon — new toggle in Preferences. Hotkeys still work. Re-launch macshot from Spotlight to restore the icon.
Shortcut clear buttons — each keyboard shortcut in Preferences now has a "x" button to disable it. Field shows "None" when cleared.
Menu bar icons — all status bar menu items now have SF Symbol icons.
Color sampler right-click to copy — right-click with the eyedropper to copy hex value to clipboard instead of pressing C.
Color picker slot system — custom color slots always have one selected. Any color you pick (swatch, gradient, or eyedropper) auto-saves to the selected slot. Slots auto-advance when using the eyedropper for rapid palette collection. Right-click a slot to clear it.
Color picker stays open — clicking on the screenshot with the color picker open now samples the color and keeps the picker visible. Switching to the eyedropper tool also keeps the picker open.
Changed
Menu bar icon size — reduced from 26px to 22px to match other menu bar apps.
Upload toast redesign — moved from bottom-right to top-center. Native macOS notification appearance with app icon, light/dark mode support, and "Open" button for upload links. Click anywhere to dismiss. Error messages now word-wrap instead of truncating.
Floating thumbnail hover — auto-dismiss timer now pauses while the cursor is over the thumbnail. Timer resumes when the cursor leaves.
Video editor responsive layout — buttons collapse to icon-only when the window is narrow, preventing overlap.
Fixed
Dock icon lifecycle — dock icon now appears when Preferences, Editor, or Video Editor windows are open, and hides when all are closed. Fixed a bug where closing the video editor didn't remove the dock icon.
Duplicate instances — launching macshot while it's already running now activates the existing instance instead of starting a second one.
Space switching — switching macOS spaces now automatically dismisses the capture overlay.
OCR window Cmd+W — the OCR results window can now be closed with Cmd+W.
Upload confirmation dialog — now shows the correct provider name ("Upload to S3?" / "Upload to Google Drive?" / "Upload to imgbb?") based on the selected provider.
Editor tall image scrolling — tall screenshots (e.g. from scroll capture) can now be scrolled at 1x zoom in the editor. Previously required zooming in first.
Zoom position preservation — zooming back to 100% in the editor no longer resets the scroll position.
Space key beep — holding Space to reposition no longer produces system beep sounds from key repeat.
