[Proposal] Delay Selected Area Screenshot

Userland Menus/Sidepanels/Pipemenus
1

Hi @napcok,

Leaving xfce4-shooter for mb-jgtools.
I got used to being able to set a delay for selected area.

mb-jgtools I modified as you see, so I can work with it now.
Until a new mb-jgtools update. :slight_smile:

What do you think to add this feature.
Maybe it’s already in your planning. :sparkles:

  • I can’t manage to make it a root menu. Jgtools is still very new to me.

Good idea, I will add this, test and update if everything will work good :slight_smile:

In the meantime, if you are interested in building submenus in jgmenu, it’s worth taking a look…

If you modify any Mabox scripts, you can copy them to ~/bin first, and modify them there.
Then they will not be overwritten by updates. ~/bin has priority over /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin

Did a quick test and all looks good.

Nice work and thanks for the Tip!. :dizzy:

Although I have done this trick for some script, after then I had lost the new features/corrections, and finally it is a matter of running meld to see what is new…

But I cannot suggest anything else to solve the issue.
