Recording: Ctrl+Shift+Cmd+R (or the menu) opens the same selection
flow — a marquee records that region, clicking a window records it
(following moves). Video is H.264 .mov at 60fps via SCStream ->
AVAssetWriter with the cursor included, auto-saved to ~/Movies and
revealed in Finder on stop. A red border and a floating timer/stop bar
show during recording, both excluded from the video. Audio is wired
behind a flag for later.
The result window gains a Crop button (crop to the selection;
annotations translate and stay editable) and is restyled after Cap:
sliding-pill Screenshot/Text switcher, capsule buttons in Cap blue,
circular icon buttons, and the content on a rounded card — light and
dark.

Frozen mode showed the still image at full brightness until a selection
existed, unlike live mode's dark veil. It now draws the same 35% veil over
everything and re-draws the selected area from the snapshot, keeping the
selection bright. The hint text matches the mode.

A second hotkey snapshots every display the moment it is pressed and
shows that still image as the overlay, so the pointer and hover states
(tooltips, open menus) are captured. Selection is marquee-only — no
window detection — and the result is cropped from the snapshot rather
than recaptured, keeping the frame exactly as it was.

The overlay used to activate Kapture, pushing the target app into
background mode so its chrome (title bar, toolbar, tabs) was captured
dimmed. Input no longer needs activation — the event tap handles it — so
the overlay is a non-activating panel shown without taking focus, and the
app keeps its active appearance in the capture.

The event tap consumes every click while selecting, which made permission
prompts unclickable when they appeared mid-capture. Clicks now pass
through when a system dialog (SecurityAgent / System Settings) is
frontmost, and the overlay shows a visible Esc hint as an escape hatch.

Panel event delivery is unreliable on macOS 26 (clicks pass through even
with the app active and the panel key). The selection flow is now driven
by a CGEventTap that sees and consumes mouse events system-wide: hover
highlights windows, clicks capture them (rounded), drags marquee-select,
Esc cancels. Requires Accessibility permission, prompted on first use;
falls back to panel events when unavailable.

Window frames are now converted to AppKit space once at detection time, so
hover highlighting and picking work on every display. A click is only
treated as a drag after 4pt of movement, so clicking a detected window
captures it instead of passing a stray marquee. Redact is now a standalone
tool (Select/Draw/Redact) with its own toolbar hints instead of a toggle
inside the draw bar.

Window detection was broken by wrong CG-to-AppKit coordinate conversion
of the cursor and highlight rects — both now go through the same
cgToAppKit mapping. The draw toolbar gains a Pen/Redact toggle: redact
drags cover content with a solid black bar (participates in undo/redo
and export like pen strokes).

Hovering during selection now highlights the window under the cursor;
clicking captures it with a rounded-corner alpha mask matching macOS
window chrome. Dragging still switches to manual marquee selection.
