  • Smooth stroke
  • Draw over applications
  • Keep drawings on desktop background with persistence (notes, children's art ...)
  • Multi-monitor support
  • Export to SVG

  2. Place the resulting directory in ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions
  3. Change the directory name to drawOnYourScreen@abakkk.framagit.org

Tips and tricks

  • Draw arrows:

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

How to draw an arrow

  • Duplicate an element:

Hold the Shift key while starting moving.

How to duplicate an element

  • Insertable images:

You can insert images (jpeg, png, svg) in your drawings. By default images are sought in ~/.local/share/drawOnYourScreen/images/ but the location is configurable in the preferences. Another way is to copy-past the images from Nautilus or any clipboard source by using the usual Ctrl + V shortcut inside the drawing mode.

  • Eraser and SVG:

There is no eraser in SVG so when you export elements made with the eraser to a SVG file, they are colored with the background color, transparent if it is disabled. See “Add a drawing background” or edit the SVG file afterwards.

  • Screenshot Tool extension:

Screenshot Tool is a convenient extension to “create, copy, store and upload screenshots”. In order to select a screenshoot area with your pointer while keeping the drawing in place, you need first to tell DrawOnYourScreen to ungrab the pointer (Ctrl + Super + Alt + D).
