Capture Previous Screen Region #18

Description

@nsathya2010

Use Case

Many users repeatedly capture the same area of the screen—for example:

  • Monitoring logs or terminal output
  • Capturing application windows during development
  • Recording UI changes during testing
  • Taking periodic screenshots for documentation

Currently, the region must be selected manually for every capture, even if it is identical to the previous one.

Proposed Solution

Add a new command (and optionally a configurable keyboard shortcut) named "Capture Previous Region" that:

  • Remembers the last successfully captured region.
  • Reuses that region for subsequent captures without displaying the selection UI.
  • Updates the stored region whenever the user performs a new manual region selection.

Optionally, the application could briefly display the remembered selection outline before capturing to provide visual confirmation for Mac and Win.
