# Take screenshots and open them in annotation tool
|
||||
|
||||
It's super convenient to be able to take a screenshot and pass it to Swappy for possible annotations in one step.
|
||||
Actions in the `.desktop` file feel like a natural place to offer these options.
|
||||
|
||||
Using rofi as a launcher, ".desktop" file actions are findable if the `-drun-show-actions` is passed.
|
||||
|
||||
With these actions, you can snapshot any of the following and have
|
||||
the result opened in swappy:
|
||||
|
||||
- current window
|
||||
- current output
|
||||
- select a window
|
||||
- select an area
|
||||
|
||||
Install this file into `~/.local/share/applications/grimshot-swappy.desktop`:

Bind this to a key, select a point on the screen and get a HTML color code for that point copied to the clipboard. Requires ImageMagick, `grim` and `slurp` to be installed.
