ScreenFloat for Mac v2.3.8 (2026.07.17)
released July 20, 2026


= NEW FEATURES =
- Shadows in window captures can now be removed after capture at any time, or on-the-fly while drag and dropping to other apps, or when exporting
- Adds a setting to automatically copy new shots
- Adds a “Recapture” Control widget (macOS 26 or newer)



= IMPROVEMENTS =
- Reduces usage of images in menus
- Dates recognized in texts can now be Quick Look'ed
- Improves responsiveness when skimming through videos in floating shots
- Append-copy now works for detected data like email addresses, phone numbers, links, etc.
- The Capture widget now also has a Recapture button
- The “After Capture” parameter in ScreenFloat's Shortcuts now supports “Ignore Mouse Clicks”, which makes the floating shot ignore mouse clicks right after capture, and “Copy”. This also applies to its url scheme.
- Widgets that show Shots can now have different click actions: Float Shot, Copy Shot, and Show in Shots Browser
- Improves the cutting of recordings
- Improves the color fidelity of screen recordings
- A new click highlight during recordings
- Removed “always-on” window capture in favor of a dedicated command in ScreenFloat's menu bar item menu
- Improves capturing windows without shadows, where attached windows (like save or print dialogs) now still retain their shadows
- Improves ScreenFloat's menu bar item's menu
- Adds more options to ScreenFloat's Control Center and Capture Widgets
- Improves the GIF export's performance and reliability
- Large shots taken on a secondary display are no longer moved to the main screen after capture
- Sequential numbers in export filename schemes now get 0-padded when necessary
- Auto-complete for the file naming scheme now filters out already used ones



= BUG FIXES =
- Fixes a bug where copying a still image from a video to the clipboard resulted in the video being copied, not the still image
- Fixes a bug that caused shots shared from other apps to ScreenFloat via its extension to not respect the supplied title
- Fixes a bug where screenshots auto-imported from macOS (if enabled) sometimes would be deleted instead of moved to the Trash, if that option was selected in Settings
- Fixes a bug where additive copying of detected text in floating shots was, in fact, not additive
- Fixes awkward artifacts that could appear around floating shots when there was transparency involved, like shadows from windows
- Fixes a crash when using the color panel
- Shots displayed in ScreenFloat's widgets are now functional and clickable again
- Fixes a bug where sometimes, when folding a shot, “Highlight” annotations would be incorrectly removed instead of adjusted
- Fixes a bug where, during setup, the “Import macOS Captures from Finder” option would not work
- Fixes one memory leak in the “About”-, and one in the “What's New” window
- Fixes a bug where shots in widgets were not clickable under certain circumstances
- Fixes a bug where sometimes some temporary files weren't cleaned up properly
- The “Capture contextual menu” result window is now more easily movable
- Fixes a bug where sometimes the Export dialog's name scheme field would resize itself for longer titles
- Fixes a bug where an export could override a previous export of the same files and naming scheme in the same destination folder, instead of appending -2 (etc) to prevent that
- Improves some strings here and there
