Works as advertised, no problems. just be sure that keyboard is in English language layout. Would be very-very nice to have option to automatically fill name of the saved picture from clipboard. And if it somehow can automatically add numbers at the end of name, like 01, 02, 03, etc., to save multiple pictures with the same name – that would be the greatest addon.
It used to work for me but for some reason it stopped working :')
not sure if it's in conflict with my other add-on or has to do something with my settings, but now when i click the screenshot nothing happens.
Oh so great to stumble upon this little extension adding much needed feature to YouTube ! Many Thanks to the developer
