Comments about Flameshot as an Alternative to Greenshot
Top Positive CommentTop Negative CommentbluMystI wanted a cross-platform way to be able to:
- Screenshot a rectangular area
- Automatically open that screenshot in an arbitrary external app
It seems like Flameshot does have that feature, but I wasn't able to figure out how to make it work. The UI seemed broken for me on Windows.
