Hi!
Has someone noticed that when you use the marker over a black background it's barely seen? Is there any configuration I'm missing to make this more visible?
If not possible yet, maybe it can be added as a New Feature in order to provide the capability to increase/decrease the transparency for the marker.
Thanks!

Adding colors on top of a back background is in general a hard thing to see. I suggest you use invert color for those parts to attract attention

That's a great workaround! I'll use that in the future. I've also noticed that if I use the marker several times on top of each, it gets better...

But also, other tools like 'Lightshot' can make it with just one draw and works quite well, so it shouldn't be hard to implement.

I think this kinda points to the direction of #2653
