Details

  • Draw arrows:

Intersect two lines and curve the second thanks to the Ctrl key.

How to draw an arrow

  • Screenshot Tool extension:

Screenshot Tool is a convenient extension to “create, copy, store and upload screenshots”. To use it while drawing mode is active, toggle the area selection mode thanks to the Screenshot Tool shortcut (Super + F11 by default, see its preferences) and hold the space key when selecting the area with pointer to avoid drawing.
