Hi, it would be nice to have hotkey to select screen area.

Currently this program may solve a problem to capture screen sometime, but UX too slow for use it dozens times at every day.

Can you give an example.

What is slow about the UX?

Sure, when i press some hotkey (for example Ctrl+Shift+F11), capture mode changed to "Area" and i can start record this area with another hotkey (for example Ctrl+Shift+F10). Then, i press first one hotkey again and area will disappear.

This behaviour would let me record some screen area fast and continue my work with couple hotkeys.

What is slow about the UX?

Currently for case where i want to record some screen area i have to do many clicks kinda:

  • click app
  • click selection mode
  • press hotkey to start
  • press hotkey to stop
  • click any other mode to continue work

vs improved behavior

  • press hotkey for selection mode
  • press hotkey to start
  • press hotkey to stop
  • press hotkey for selection mode (to disable or change mode to another)

The second one scenario requires zero clicks, so it may be performed very fast and frequently
