Hello. I spontaneously thought of a small improvement that would make the tool even better. Copy and paste is already possible. I use the tool e.g. to take screenshots from different sources. One source e.g. is a video. It would be great if I could just press the "PrintScreen" key on my keyboard, add the picture to the canvas using "Paste" (this part is already working) and now crop the picture for example with "Ctrl-" to the relevant area. Possibly you can check in the options whether the cropped image should be saved in the cropped or in the full version. But such a "quick crop" function would be superb. https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,2232#msg-2232 Thu, 15 Oct 2026 19:01:12 +0200 Phorum 5.2.23 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,5988#msg-5988 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,5988#msg-5988 -------------------------------------------------------

I recommend creating a bookmark to the PureRef online Handbook. They have done an excellent job of documenting everything including Keybinds.

If the shortcuts don't work you can also try set them to something else in the shortcut settings.]]> PureRef Suggestions Tue, 25 Aug 2026 17:22:14 +0200 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,5863#msg-5863 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,5863#msg-5863 refox Suggestions Fri, 22 May 2026 09:01:41 +0200 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,3592#msg-3592 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,3592#msg-3592 -------------------------------------------------------

That's exactly what I'm looking for thank you! I think it would make it much easier if that was the action while holding C instead of Ctrl+Alt+Shift+C and Maybe the color of the outline could change so its more obvious its changed because the switch to squares isn't very obvious. Regardless thank you so much!]]> refox Suggestions Thu, 28 Mar 2024 05:05:01 +0100 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,3590#msg-3590 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,3590#msg-3590 PureRef Suggestions Wed, 27 Mar 2024 14:03:11 +0100 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,3584#msg-3584 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,3584#msg-3584 refox Suggestions Wed, 27 Mar 2024 05:05:30 +0100 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,2663#msg-2663 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,2663#msg-2663 sktvete Suggestions Tue, 18 Jan 2022 15:01:58 +0100 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,2247#msg-2247 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,2247#msg-2247 resa12354 Suggestions Mon, 28 Sep 2020 03:37:29 +0200 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,2234#msg-2234 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,2234#msg-2234 PureRef Suggestions Wed, 16 Sep 2020 20:14:05 +0200 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,2233#msg-2233 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,2233#msg-2233
It's already inside. Just press the "C-Button"
A thousand times sorry.

Please just delete the thread.]]> MonoPure Suggestions Tue, 15 Sep 2020 10:11:42 +0200 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,2232#msg-2232 https://www.pureref.com/forum/read.php?3,2232,2232#msg-2232
