Postcard v2.3.0

Copy captures the moment you take them, selection handles that work like a design app's, marks that stay on the picture, and a new About panel.

Copy every capture as you take it

Sometimes a screenshot doesn't need editing, it just needs pasting. Turn on Copy to the clipboard when capturing in Settings, and every new region, window, screen or smart capture goes onto the clipboard as the plain screenshot, before any framing.

The editor still opens as usual in case you want to spice it up. A shot added beside others on a card isn't copied, since that card is still being built. Scripts can turn it on with set '{"captureCopies":true}'. Thanks to @tomtorggler for this one (#13).

Handles like a design app's

Selected annotations now get a thin frame just outside the mark, with small white squares on its corners. Nothing covers the middle of each side any more.

Arrows and lines no longer get a box around them. A selected arrow is traced along its own line, with a round handle at each end.

Bend curved arrows

A curved arrow now has a third handle halfway along it. Drag it to bend the curve more, less, or the other way, or onto the line to straighten it.

Scripts can set the bend too: annotate takes "bend" from -1 to 1.

Annotations stay on the picture

Annotations can no longer be drawn, moved or resized past the edge of the picture: the whole card, background and padding included.

Bolder arrowheads

Arrowheads are wider on every arrow and longer on thin strokes, so a 2px arrow's head is about 13px wide instead of 8px.

About panel

A new ⓘ button beside Settings opens an About panel.

One set of icons

Every icon in the editor and the bar menu now comes from the same icon font at the same size, so rows of buttons no longer look uneven.

Fixes

  • Closing the editor with Settings or About open no longer brings that panel back the next time it opens.
  • The whole of a curved arrow can be clicked, including the part that bows outside the box it was drawn in.

What's Changed

  • Add a setting to copy each capture to the clipboard as it is taken by @tomtorggler in #13
