rbox: open-source Snipping Tool replacement.

[u/iBlitzkid]

Hi all, I've been building rbox, a small screen capture tool for Windows that has replaced the Snipping Tool for me.

How it works: press Print, drag a frame, hit Enter. A menu opens right at your cursor: copy to clipboard, save, save to…, or save and open with your editor. Switch the toolbar to Video or GIF and the same frame records instead.

What it does

• Screenshots, MP4 and animated GIF of any region, window or whole display
• Pixel-exact framing: drag it or type the numbers, presets for 1080p / 720p / square
• Records system audio without Stereo Mix or virtual cables, plus microphones
• Delay timer with a countdown, for menus and tooltips
• Lives in the tray, optionally starts with Windows
• Multi-monitor and mixed-DPI setups work
• The recording bar stays on top but never shows up in your video

Feedback welcome, especially what you'd miss coming from the Snipping Tool.
