Re: [Ayatana] Some thoughts about unclutter



2010/7/2 Lance <lbsolost@xxxxxxxxx>
I would add that my first annoyance with this behavior is that I often use the mouse pointer to "point out" something in a screenshot. Now I must stay physically active to do so rather than just setting the screenshot delay time properly, positioning the pointer, and waiting.


On a side note, I think that a good screenshot tool should, just like it should just capture both screen and window and offer the choice after, offer the choice to show hide the mouse pointer after the fact. If this is done by saving the position and what pointer is active, or if the tool should take multiple captures I don't know. But I have both use cases, and it would be nice if that was a small checkbox before save. If unclutter was to be active, I would expect the tool to be able to show a pointer anyway.

I've been using unclutter for a while now, and I like it more than not, but it's not a make-or-break feature by any means.
