Thanks for your prompt response.

I'm replying your questions below:

- Is that setting difficult to find, i.e. why did you miss to discover it?

It's not difficult to find, but it's really unexpected and not intuitive at
all. I would have never expected such an option for this action to be under the
"Configure" menu. Following this criteria, why don't we have options for other
actions such as "Active Window" or "On Click", ...etc. It's completely
unexpected.


- Should we check that setting by default, because otherwise it will be missed?

I would only shared the idea of enabling this option by default, if the UI
remains the same. However, I would prefer to add a new option/capture mode in
the "Area" dropdown list below "Rectangular Region" than changing the current
behavior. Such a new option/capture mode should be called something like
"Repeat Last Capture". It would work for rectangular regions, current screen,
or whatever the capture was before. Just repeat what I did before. It's simple,
it's intuitive, and it's easy to find and understand.


- Some argue that creating new rectangles will be more difficult when there is
already a preselected region. Could you try that and tell me if that is the
case for you?

I don't think creating rectangles becomes more difficult. However, we would be
changing the behavior just to cover the lack of an option/capture mode in the
"Area" dropdown list. The feeling I got when I tested for the first time it's a
bit strange. You click on the screen, and this time a rectangle is drawn. I'm
no longer creating the rectangle myself. Then, if I want to come back to the
old behavior, I have to go to the "Configure" menu and change the settings.
Strange... I don't standard actions should be hidden under the "Configure"
menu.

If you need anything else, please just let me know. It's great to collaborate
with you guys!

I hope it helps!

Best regards.
