I know this feature has been in the backlog for a while, but I thought I’d add my vote here. As a product manager frequently doing 100s of screenshots and annotating them for insights and UX feedback, I use greenshot extensively, exclusively with shortcut keys, to compare 3 screens at a time on an ultrawide monitor screenshot. The counter bubbles are illegible at that resolution. I’d love a size incrementing option, that scales the bubble and font in proportion. That would be just amazing.
Thanks as always for a fabulous product.

My problem is, that I don’t like the font size in the bubble. In my opinion the font in the counter bubbles in the old Greenshot version (2017) looks prettier. I guess more options would solve my issues too.

I don’t use this feature often, because I can’t get the counters readable. If there were more settings, like mentioned here, I would actually use this feature

Counters are incredibly useful, though the current implementation puts a serious cap on just how useful they can be. I find the text inside the counter is very difficult to read. Consider the following screenshot….
One can barely see the numbers. Now consider this screenshot….
Having the ability to set a default for following properties of the counter would be great.
Counter Background color *
Counter Circle Size
Font type
Font color *
Font Size
* I’m aware that colors can already be set. Including them here for completeness and clarity.
The ability to change all of those settings on a per comment basis (as I did when I changed #4 in my 2nd screenshot above) would be helpful too. Right now, we can only change the colors and Counter Circle Size. We can’t change the other attributes. Making the Counter Circle larger without changing the font size is, well…
It would also be great if there was an option to switch between Counter Type (such as 1,2,3 or A,B,C or i, ii, iii) and Counter Shape (circle, square…) but these are really blue sky wish lists.
Greenshot is, hands down, one of the most used applications in my daily life. In fact, I’ve just gone and made a donation to the project to say thanks!

Adding comment to request this feature and boost visibility. The counter bubbles are one of my favorite features but they are too large. Having an option to make them smaller by default would be fantastic. Frustrating to have to resize them every time.
P.S. Love your guys' program, it’s literally changed my life.
There are properties for the background color an text color on the Counter bubbles, but it would be nice if there was another property in the toolbar where we could set the SIZE of the bubble. I know that we can resize them after they are placed, but it would be nice to have a setting to control this for all new Counter bubbles created.
