I would like to keep using Win+Shift+S with the native Windows screenshot tool, but I like Winshot's annotator. As far as I know, there is no such editor for Windows. I would like to request a setting for making the UI simpler for this use case.

My flow is:

  • Screenshot using Win+Shift+S
  • Open Winshot using Raycast (or Windows' own search)
  • Ctrl+V to paste my screenshot
  • Annotate and press "copy"

Currently, Winshot's UI is a bit too dense for me. It would be ideal to have a setting to:

  • Hide the bottom status bar
  • Hide the top action bar
  • Open Winshot with the clipboard's contents directly

Also, I would suggest adding a Ctrl+, setting, when in the UI, to open the settings.
