rounded corners for screenshots

Is your feature request related to a problem? No

Hi. Is it possible to save the image with rounded corners? Maybe it can be added as a CLI option or maybe as an icon in the gui..
This is not a must have option but (I think) it's easy to implement and aestheticly pleasing..

How should we determine the radius of the rounded edge?

[alperyilmaz]

based on imagemagick code below, a set value can be used (such as 15). Or, it can be proportional to image size.
Also, for corners to be noticeable, alpha channel should be added to the image

convert $filename \( +clone -alpha extract \
   \( -size 15x15 xc:black -draw 'fill white circle 15,15 15,0' -write mpr:arc +delete \) \
   \( mpr:arc \) -gravity northwest -composite \
   \( mpr:arc -flip \) -gravity southwest -composite \
   \( mpr:arc -flop \) -gravity northeast -composite \
   \( mpr:arc -rotate 180 \) -gravity southeast -composite \) \
   -alpha off -compose CopyOpacity -composite

My question is more related to what is the best way in the GUI to let the user set the size of the radius. I think we should just follow the global thickness for now. @mmahmoudian thoughts?

[alperyilmaz]

sorry, I completely misunderstand the intent. Maybe ctrl (or shift) mouse wheel can be used to determine roundedness thickness..

[mmahmoudian]

Interesting concept. Assuming that a user will not change this setting as frequent as thickness of tools, it might make more sense to have an option for it in General tab of the config UI (and a section in the config file corresponding to this) that gets the radius as an integer in pixels.

On general note, I personally don't find this feature useful, but I don't see it far off the general context of Flameshot either. Of course, one way to look at it is to implement a feature in Flameshot CLI that outputs the image to the stdout so that users can pipe it into any CLI pipeline.

I'd like to have this option as well.

It could be configured in UI either as a slider or with a numerical value.
