Is there a possibility to save everything to clipboard instead of opening editor?
Following flow:

  1. Select area
  2. Start
  3. Stop

After clicking stop the recording is automatically saved in clipboard as a gif.

It's not properly possible to save a gif to the clipboard.
You can set the path of the gif and some apps may be able to load the gif automatically when you paste it, but different from storing an image to the clipboard.

About the other aspect of your feature request, that's on my plans for the next year. :)

hello, I used screentogif for a while, I liked this application, it seems to me that the function described in this issue is very lacking, because I rarely want to save a file to disk. I hope you have time this year to implement this feature. thanks in advance

@NickeManarin I think png can handle animation as well, could that be posted to the clipboard?
