Postcard v2.2.0
Multiple shots on one card, a watermark, full undo, and a much faster way to annotate and share.
Multiple shots on one card
Put screenshots side by side, or stack them, for a before and after or a whole flow. Add in the header grabs a region, a window or the screen, or opens a file, and puts it beside the shot already open. Each shot gets a card of its own, with its own corners, shadow and title bar, and the background shows in the gap between them.
Once there are two, a Shots section appears in the inspector. Switch between side by side and stacked, set the gap, and choose whether larger shots are scaled down to line up or keep their sizes, aligned top, middle or bottom. Each shot has a row to move it, undo its crop, or take it off the card.
Annotations work across the whole card, so an arrow can point from one shot to another, and each end of it stays with its own shot when you reorder or restack. Cropping trims only the shot you draw on. Hiding secrets, copying text and spotlights all cover every shot.
Scripts can add shots with omarchy-shell shell call tahayvr.postcard add region (or windows, fullscreen, a path, or file).
Watermark
Sign your cards with a handle, a logo or both, under the card's bottom-right corner. The ink is light or dark to suit the background, and the mark tucks inside the corner when there's no padding. It's saved with a preset, so every capture can carry it. Logos are copied into ~/.config/postcard/logos, so a preset keeps working if the original file moves.
Undo everything
Undo and redo now cover every change to your annotations for as long as the picture is open: drawing, moving, resizing, restyling, typing, deleting, pasting, clearing. A drag or a burst of typing is a single step. Ctrl+Z to undo, Ctrl+Shift+Z or Ctrl+Y to redo.
Select, copy and paste annotations
Select several annotations with Shift+click, by dragging a box with the move tool, or with Ctrl+A, then move, nudge, restyle or delete them together. Ctrl+C, Ctrl+X and Ctrl+V copy, cut and paste annotations, and Ctrl+D duplicates them. With nothing selected, Ctrl+C still copies the picture. The arrow keys nudge a selection by 1px, or 10px with Shift.
Better labels and your own colours
Text labels now resize from their corners, like every other annotation, and come in two fonts: mono (JetBrains Mono) and sans (iA Writer Quattro). Annotation colours get the same picker and screen eyedropper as backgrounds, and the colours you pick are kept under the ink swatches, apart from your background colours.
Drag it anywhere
Hold Drag in the footer and drop the card straight into a browser, a chat or any other app, as a file in the format you've chosen.
WebP and Settings
WebP joins PNG and JPEG, and is lossless at quality 100. The clipboard still gets a PNG, since most apps won't paste WebP. A new Settings view, behind the gear in the title bar, lets you choose whether saving also copies to the clipboard, and shows where saves go.
Scripting
omarchy-shell shell call tahayvr.postcard help '' prints every call, and help set, help annotate and help capture list every option. The help is generated from the same lists the plugin uses, so it's always current. The README has a much fuller scripting guide, with the command line's rules, how to wait for the editor, and recipes for common jobs. info now reports delivering and lastSaved, so a script can wait for a save and pick up the file.
Fixes
- Captures no longer leave an extra copy in your screenshots folder; only the finished postcard is saved there.
Deleteremoves a selected text label instead of typing into it.- Two saves in the same second no longer overwrite each other.
- A huge selection can no longer swamp the code card; it takes the first 64K characters and says so.
- Every file in
~/.config/postcardnow carries a version, so future changes can migrate your settings, colours and presets safely.
