Basic image edition/annotation tool

Open dani opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Describe the feature you'd like

Ability to do some very basic image edition inline in BookStack would be very appreciated. Most notably :

  • Blur some part of the image
  • Add emphasis on some part of the image

There was already Bug #318 opened for this but with a much bigger scope (and was closed)

Describe the benefits this would bring to existing BookStack users

Being able to hide some part of a screenshot (sensitive information), or add emphasis on a button, without having to open a 3rd party image editor tool would make it much easier to write technical doc where you need to attach a lot of screenshots. This would be especially useful on Linux, where there's very few decent screen capture tools (well, there are a few, but nearly none allow image editing, and those who do are buggy, especially when running on wayland)

Can the goal of this request already be achieved via other means?

Yes, via a 3rd party image editor

Have you searched for an existing open/closed issue?

What about integrating something like https://recogito.github.io/annotorious/ ? It looks like a substantial amount of functionally is built in.
