Clicked pushpin icon removed shapes menu, no way to restore it.

Question

The editor has been showing both the screenshot being edited, and a toolbar-like 'shapes' menu that allowed user to select next mouse action. The toolbar includes a pushpin icon which I inadvertently clicked. The bar went away and I can't find a way to restore it. Now left mouse can draw a shape, and right mouse shows a single choice, 'Annotate'. I can no longer delete images, add PNG comments, select a window within an image, etc. I've tried all keyboard combinations but can't find the one to restore the shapes toolbar and its pushpin. Very frustrating. Basically I can't use Screenshot Studio any more.

Accepted Answer

Did you read the rules before posting the report? (Try moving mouse to the top of screen in the editor)

Answer

Ok, thanks. But I suspect you're using an old version, please update it to the latest: https://screenshot-program.com/downloads.php

Thanks, JK. I did finally stumble on this solution. See my post on providing a general Help text or Tips page. I think it would have helped in this case. And thanks for the great software! -Mike Russell
