Every screenshot you take hangs on a line just above your screen. Rest the pointer in the menu bar and it glides down. Move away and it's gone.
| Click | Copy the image. |
| Press and hold | Open it in Markup. |
| Double click | Open it in Preview. |
| Force click | Take a quick look. |
| Drag into an app | Send a copy. It stays on the line. |
| Drag into a folder | Keep it there. It leaves the line. |
| Drag to the Trash, or click the cross | Let it go. |
| Rest the pointer in the menu bar | Bring the line down on that screen. |
| Click anything in the menu bar | Put it away. |
| ⌃ ⌥ T | Show or hide the line. Change it under Shortcut in the menu bar. |
Hand Tendedero your screenshots1 and they skip the Desktop entirely. No floating thumbnail. No five-second wait. Each capture hangs the instant you take it, and only what you drag out is kept.
Screen recordings hang there too, with a play button over them. Press and hold one to trim it.
Same shortcuts. Same muscle memory. Just less mess.
Take a screenshot with ⌃ held, or copy an image in Preview, and it hangs on the line like any other. Turn on Hang copied images in the menu bar and the shirt fills in while it is on. Only images: anything copied along with text or a file, and anything a password manager marks as private, is left alone.
No account. No network. No analytics. Tendedero runs entirely on your Mac, and your screenshots never leave it.
