@julian Ok i will wait! 🙂
Screen Capture Tool
-
Just an idea... if you are viewing something, have a browser extension to take a screenshot and then be able to post it to a topic without leaving the page. A simple drop-down menu to select what forum/topic or create a new one with a comment as an option.
-
@19eighties Firefox > Screengrab. Allows me to do this without leaving the page.
Just requires clicking Save in right click, then upload to imgur through the composer.
-
@a_5mith What if you're grabbing on another site? Then you have to go to another tab or open one to the forum and get to the topic.
-
Didn't think about that bit, but seems a very niche request. And probably better suited as a plugin.
-
@a_5mith Agreed, just an idea... it'd be a way to share any content a little more easily without leaving where you are at.
-
On windows you can use ALT + printscreen to grab a screenshot of the current active window then paste that into the composer as well.
-
Windows also comes with a really cool "Snipping Tool", iirc.
-
possible with canvas I think, so no ie8 support
-
I use Sharex
It allows me to grab a region, upload to my server and copy the link, all in one button. -
@xbenjii That tool sounds handy.
Just wondering if anyone else would find if useful to upload directly to a post with a capture tool. I find it better to just give an audience an immediate visual instead of (or as a supplement to) a link since it breaks the flow and many may not actually click the link. Sort of like being able to reply to a post via email direct.
