We're a tiny country, but we get around!
Yep, indeed it does! Exactly yeah, that was one of two main reasons I changed it, the other being that the 'Automatic' mode didn't work in Desktop/Attached mode without making these changes.
I see. Well, there could potentially be a solution for this, but it sounds like a very niched issue and not something I have time to spend on right now. The idea anyways is to make the Desktop/Attached window not allowed to take any mouse input whatsoever (potentially controlled by a hotkey), as that may solve your problem.
That's pretty cool, with the chroma stuff, never realised streaming applications had that feature (quite obvious now that I think about it..). Thank you for the example!
I can tell someone skipped the capture tutorial..! 😉
I understand that the naming can be confusing. I haven't really spent any time trying to come up with a less confusing way to name the two modes.
Eitherway, the 'Automatic' mode is as you found out executed the same way, just constantly capturing and immersively rendered into the background. It is not a 'Fullscreen' capture mode, this option is planned but not added yet. Thus, what you should use it for is just to capture specific areas that only render text, to avoid it from interfering with the background and gameplay intensive areas.
Manual mode is meant more as a 'translate-on-the-go' alternative.
There has been a previous request to basically mix the two, to be able to select an area to continuously capture & translate, but then render the translated text in a 'Manual' style window. The more examples I see of how people want to use the app, the more I understand the request. I think it is something I will implement soon enough.
Btw, there's some configs to modify to make the 'Automatic' mode less destructive that may work in your favour!
Thank you for your examples and input. Sorry about the late reply! :)
