Are we going to also test the Windows build? If so, then:

1. "Display Server:" -> "Display Server (if applies):
2. in the Installation Method, we should also add the windows format (.exe or .msi)

Also as a general question: it is possible that some people connect one monitor to one graphic card and the other monitor on another card. Can this cause issue and should we also include a part in the monitor section for clarification of such setup?

[borgmanJeremy]

@mmahmoudian Thanks! I updated those items.

[aivchen]

Glad to see that the project is alive again!

Which of those should I try? Not quite understand fc and lp abbreviations.

[ZetaoYang]

@VBelozyorov fc means fedora, lp means opensuse leap

[mmahmoudian]

@MichaelTunnell how did you install/get Flameshot?

[borgmanJeremy]

@MichaelTunnell Thanks for testing! I believe we have fixed the pixelate and counter issues. I will try to resolve the dimension issue before release.

@mmahmoudian I believe it is from the RC1 release page (that is what i linked in a telegram group)

[MichaelTunnell]

I got Flameshot 0.8 AppImage from the GitHub release. I found there was a new version to test because of the update notice for 0.8 to Issue #124

Summary

• The font color does not change from white to black if background color is over the threshold (same is true with all of the tools in screenshot mode except resolution)

• Tool "Upload to imugr" fails with Host api.imugr.com not found, still works in 0.6
  

• When the tool "Move selection" is selected, the button does not turn to the secondary colour (may be intended behavior)

• When tool "pin to desktop" is used, the border is solid black (except for the glow)
