Powerfull yet simple to use screenshot software.

Usage

Add flameshot-cli to be executed as a shortcut. When you press the assigned key, Flameshot will be launched in the capture mode.

A systray icon will be added to your panel after the first execution of Flameshot.

Do a right click on the tray icon and you'll see some menu items to open the configuration window and the information window. Check out the information window to see all the available shortcuts in the capture mode.

Considerations

Not working on Wayland

• If you are using Gnome you need to install the TopIcons extension in order to see the systemtray icon.

• In order to speed up the first launch of Flameshot (DBus init of the app can be slow), consider starting an application automatically on boot.

• This software is very focused on selection capture and edition, but you can do full screen captures very easily just not having a visible selection, by default it will take it as if you were selecting the whole screen.

• Check the docs folder for more information.

• Information about manual compilation can be found here`
