Ability to have multiple rectangle tool setting profiles

The Greenshot image editor is hugely useful.

Two very typical use cases are the following:

1. To highlight a specific item in the screenshot by placing a colored rectangle with transparent fill around the highlighted item.

2. To quickly censor a few things in a screenshot by placing an opaque (typically black or white) rectangle over the sensitive item.

See illustration of these different use cases below

These two use cases are very distinct but both are very typical.

This means that it is often necessary to shift between those two configuration of rectangles.
Doing so takes many clicks:

Shifting to censor mode:

1. Click Rectangle on tool bar

2. Click fill color

3. Click black

4. Click Apply

5. Click Line color

6. Click Black

7. Click Apply

That is 7 clicks in total

Shifting to highlight mode:

1. Click Rectangle on tool bar

2. Click fill color

3. Click transparent

4. Click Apply

5. Click Line color

6. Click appropriate color, e.g. red, blue, green, etc.

7. Click Apply

That is also 7 clicks in total.

I propose one of the following improvements.

A: Multiple Rectangle Settings profiles
To have a few different rectangle profiles on the toolbar. Each of these could have different fill color, line color, line thickness and drop shadow.

Below is a mock up of what this could look like.

In this example, there are 3 different profiles available. These are selected in the section marked as green.
Currently profile 3 is selected.
When the user clicks a profile, the settings shown in the section marked as red will change based on the profile settings.

B: Two different Rectangle tools
A different approach that is somewhat more limited but solves the two typical use cases mentioned above is to have two different rectangle tools:

• One for highlighting that is with transparent fill by default and a vibrant line color. This is basically the current rectangle tool with all the available settings.

• One for censoring that is by default opaque filled with black and line color black. This is a special instance of the rectangle tool in which the only thing the user can change is the fill color. Line thickness is always 1 and same color as fill color. Drop shadow is not possible.

Personally, I would strongly prefer solution A.
