Pin a screenshot on top of everything

Capture something once, keep it in view while you work. A pinned capture floats above your other windows — a reference that doesn’t disappear the moment you switch apps.

The end of window ping-pong

Transcribing values from one app into another, following setup instructions, comparing an implementation against a design — the pattern is the same: you need to see two things at once. Pin the reference and it stays put while you type underneath it.

From capture to pinned in one step

Take any capture — area, window, or a crop of either — and pin it straight to the screen. Move it where it's useful and get back to work; it floats above your windows until you dismiss it.

Annotate first if it helps

Because pinning starts from a capture, you can run it through the editor first — highlight the three values you actually need, then pin the marked-up version.

Frequently asked questions

Does the pinned image stay on top when I switch apps?

Yes — that's the point. It floats above your other windows so the reference stays visible while you work in any app.

What can I pin?

Any Shotcrisp capture — an area you selected, a window, or a capture you've annotated in the editor first.

Is pinning free?

Yes. Like all local features in Shotcrisp, pin-to-screen is free.
