🎬 ScreenToGif allows you to record a selected area of your screen, edit and save it as a gif or video.
• Added option to highlight extra mouse buttons clicks.
• You can now prevent download of updates in metered network connections (@GopherTheCoder).
• Updated KGySoft libraries, with performance improvements and a new option to execute color operations in linear space (@koszeggy).
♦ Fixed issue with Alt + Left/Right not triggering the delete before/after command.
♦ Fixed issue with FFmpeg encoding sometimes surpassing the 100% mark (@pawlos).
PS: The development of successor to ScreenToGif 2 is going strong. It's around 75% complete (of its initial set of features), so I expect to be able to launch this year if everything goes right. I can't wait to show all the new things alongside its new home page!
• Small updates to theming, now the title bar follows the theme color as well.
• Update to .NET 8 (Windows 10 1607 is the minimum supported version).
• Updated Dutch, Chinese and Czech localization.
♦ Fix the collection modified error when opening a project.
♦ Fixed the frame selection which was causing some frames to be pasted out of order.
♦ Tweaked the border color around the recorder (for dark theme) as it was not matching the other colors.
• Added support for v6 of FFmpeg.
• Added option to set background color to free text (thanks to @r1bilski).
♦ The save panel was not opening on non-primary screens when KGySoft encoder was selected.
♦ FFmpeg and Gifski were not being detected after install.
♦ Video importing with FFmpeg was not working but also not reporting errors.
• Added more keyboard shortcuts for frame navigation in the timeline (Ctrl and/or Alt while pressing left/right arrows). • Updated the Italian and French localizations.
♦ The fade transition "to color" was not working properly for high DPI projects.
I continue working on the next big release (v3), so expect less updates for v2. It will be a complete rewrite of the app, with nice new features for capturing, editing, and exporting content. The target for the next version is around the end of the year, maybe sooner. ;)
• Updated the Japanese and Turkish localizations.
