elementary OS image annotation tool Annotator 1.2 released

Annotator is a free and open source image annotation tool originally designed for elementary OS, but is also available for other Linux. Recently, the tool has released version 1.2. The new version adds functions such as taking screenshots of the full screen, current window and selected area.

The new version also adds the ability to use command line options to take screenshots. Currently it only works on Xorg sessions, which means that the GNOME Wayland session used by default in Ubuntu and Fedora Workstation needs to switch back to Xorg from the login screen to use this feature. .

RunCat 10.0 released, the cat that lives in the menu bar

RunCat is a tool that can reside in the Mac menu bar and Windows taskbar. It can provide a keyframe animation, and the cat will tell you the computer's CPU usage by how fast it runs.

Recently, developers updated RunCat for the Mac platform to version 10.0. In the update log, the developer stated:

The new version introduces a testable architecture that should make future development smoother
The Mac version introduces SwiftUI and redesigns the UI of the runner store and self-made runner registration interface.
In order to simplify the overall view of the application, some features have been temporarily removed, such as the ability to display runners with accent colors and the ability to obtain CPU temperatures using the RunCat plugin (will consider whether to implement them again in the near future)
The ability for cats to sleep on sub-monitors for users with multiple monitors has been removed because the feature conflicted with video playback from streaming services, causing screen rendering to break.
