Hello. I am a longtime user of Share X.
First, thank you to the creator and all the contributors. Share X is an awesome software.

Previously, sorry I couldn't remember the exact version since I did not use "scroll capture" for a long time. I have seen that this section has many options such as methods for scrolling or how the image parts are paired together, etc. It was not overwhelming for me, but perhaps for common users, removing some options might be reasonable. However, I still think that these complex and intricate configurations can be useful in some cases.

Today, I tried many times but could not scroll capture "QT Design Object Properties (Detach Window)". The captured result always shows only the final part of the scrollbar.
ShareX_2024-05-11_11-29-01

My environment:

  • OS: Windows 10 Build 19045
  • Share X: 16.0.1 Portable - Running with a local administrator user (Me), but with Normal Privileges (This is an autostartup entry added by Share X internally)
  • Target Window: Qt Designer Standalone 5.11.1

So I want to ask if there is a way for me to bring those options back.

Otherwise, could someone please let me know which version still has the "complex" options present? I will use the old version for Scroll Capture.

I would love to have those expanded options back in some form. The new scrolling capture from what I find is failing to properly stitch images. Most of the time, all I get is the initial first image capture. The "Common problems and solutions" section mentions reasonble hurdles, but I am taking scrolling shots of non-static elements, animated/video/gifs, or include hover effects. Heck, I tried it on a text editor and PDFs. The previous scrolling capture was more robust and capable. Unfortunate that this is what we got now.
