Added
- 18 new mesh gradient styles — replaced the previous 7 mesh gradients with 18 new high-contrast styles featuring displaced grid points and bolder color combinations. Added "Charcoal" linear gradient style.
- Scroll capture live stitching — frames are now captured and stitched continuously during manual scrolling, not just after the scroll gesture ends. Preview updates in real time as you scroll.
Changed
- Scroll capture engine rewrite — completely rewritten for reliability. Uses on-demand frame capture (
CGWindowListCreateImage) instead of persistent streams, TIFF byte-by-byte comparison for pixel-perfect frame settlement, Vision-based offset detection, and incremental stitching. Handles Chrome smooth scrolling, lazy-loaded content, and scrollbar interference. Max scroll height increased from 20,000 to 30,000 pixels. - Beautify shadow slider range — increased maximum from 40 to 100 for more dramatic shadow effects.
- Hotkey modal dismiss — pressing the capture hotkey while a modal dialog is open (e.g. Preferences, permission prompts) now dismisses the modal and triggers the capture, instead of being silently ignored.
- Status bar menu reliability — clicking the menu bar icon while a modal is open now properly dismisses the modal before showing the menu.
Fixed
- Function key hotkeys — F1–F20 can now be used as capture hotkeys without requiring modifier keys (Cmd/Shift/Option/Ctrl). Fixes support for non-Mac keyboards with dedicated function keys.
