When using the screenshot tool, its sometimes nice to select a body or face to call attention to it in the screenshot. After recent updates, the “move” tool arrows are now **visible** in the screenshot, which looks bad.

Wondering if this could be a quick fix/revert back by the Shapr team. Anyone else seeing this or know which version it first started occurring in?

Hmm, it doesn’t do that for me. No gizmos shown in screenshot mode.

I’m on the latest version, 26.91.11012.0.

I’m on iPad OS 26.5, latest version of the app- 26.91.0.11012

Super annoying and also present on desktop app… any ideas? Is this a preferences thing or something? Attaching screenshot for good measure.

In the meantime, a simple workaround would be to zoom out, move the Move Tool gizmo out of the way and zoom back in then take your screen shot.

I don’t know why I didn’t think of that… hah.

Thanks!
