Read the QR code directly from the screen

[yui10]

What improvement do you think would an existing feature or tool in DevToys?

Currently, it is possible to read QR codes in images and clipboards.
However, it requires a separate tool to take a screenshot, which is time-consuming.
Therefore, it would be nice to have the ability to take a screenshot and read the QR code from within the application.

Solution/Idea

Add the ability to take screenshots to the QR Code tool.

Comments

It would be better if it is possible to capture any area like Snipping Tool.

Hi, and thanks for your suggestion.
While this would indeed be handy, we'd need to implement a platform-specific solution for each operating systems, increasing the amount of dependencies and making DevToys.Tools harder to maintain. Given the fact we already support Smart Detection (you can just paste the image in the clipboard), I would like not to do this work unless there's a significant amount of upvotes on this issue.
