But to extract the most of it, I would recommend having a shortcut like this:

paired with advanced clipboard manager as copyq (with shortcuts to access the clipboard entries in a list fashion + preview for images):

and OCR shortcut to extract text from images:

#!/bin/bash

rpath="/tmp/$RANDOM"
mkdir -p "$rpath"

/usr/bin/xclip -selection clipboard -t image/png -o > "$rpath/out.png"
/usr/bin/tesseract "$rpath/out.png" "$rpath/out"
cat "$rpath/out.txt" | xclip -selection clipboard
rm -rf "$rpath"
notify-send "Clipboard" "Successfully copied OCR output to clipboard"

Then you have the perfect setup for taking screenshots, editing/manipulating them on the fly, extracting text from them and saving them for later use.

The workflow is just remembering like 3-4 shortcuts 🙂

Sorry for the lengthily and detailed answer, but this is a setup I'm really proud of <3

PS: nobody asked for the background image, but I think this is something you will like:

My settings:
https://rezmason.github.io/matrix/?effect=customStripes&colors=119,0,121,1,1,0,0,1,1&width=101&volumetric=true&forwardSpeed=0.2&density=5&ditherMagnitude=0.02&font=resurrections&loops=true

If someone knows how to use this webpage as animated background without having too much machine resources wasted, please let me know !

    Hello!
    I am very happy to register now, for the joy of the resurrection of Solus! I will also show you my Hungarian Solus!

    presianbg if any one want a cli/script you can try this 2 lines (install scrot)

    screenshot-w.sh
    #!/bin/bash
    scrot -u -d 5 ~/Pictures/%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S.png
    notify-send -u low "Scrot" "Screenshot [window] done !!!"

    screenshot.sh
    #!/bin/bash
    scrot -d 5 ~/Pictures/%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S.png
    notify-send -u low "Scrot" "Screenshot done !!!"

      : @presianbg thanks for that. and the setup/run information was wonderfully presented. flameshot I will look at.
