--- Comment #3 from Synthetic451 <[email protected]> --- > Hmm, if we did this, we'd have to do the same for recording Is this necessarily the case though? Reason why I think they should be handled differently is because screen recording is usually clicking record and then spending 1 or 2 minutes before stopping, whereas screenshots frequently need to be done in rapid succession. The rapid repetitiveness of taking screenshots makes the hidden menu options significantly more cumbersome than the video recording situation. However, I do understand the need for consistency. What if we went with an icons only approach? We're already doing that for the save and copy icons. It would be easy to represent "Select Window" and "Full screen" as icons only, and then we have the dropdown for the other options. The screen recording icons could just have a red recording dot next to them. We can even have a text label in front of them marking the two sections. So for example: Screenshot: [Window Icon] [Monitor Icon] [Dropdown Arrow] | Recording: [Window Icon with red dot] [Monitor Icon with red dot] [Dropdown Arrow] That way its consistent with both capture types. They're clearly labeled whether its screenshot or recording, and the two primary actions for each are revealed at the top layer. All excess options will still be available via the dropdowns. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
