How to use it
- Open the extension → Options → Screenshot Appearance.

Works with step screenshots, single captures, and any export target.
🎨 Make stunning screenshot guides in seconds!
One toggle turns a raw capture into a presentation‑ready image for Docs, Confluence, Notion, Help Centers and blogs.
If you create step‑by‑step guides, onboarding checklists, change‑logs or feature announcements, attractive images matter. Search engines favor pages where visuals keep users engaged, and teams prefer documentation that looks trustworthy. Our screenshot appearance controls act like a lightweight screenshot editor: pick a two‑color or three‑color gradient background with direction, reveal the backdrop with adjustable margin (0–40 px), round corners (0–20 px) and apply a drop shadow with X/Y offset, blur, color and alpha.
The result is a consistent, brand‑ready image for Confluence, Notion, SharePoint, GitHub wikis, learning portals and public blogs — without a design tool. Use GuideToDocs as your screenshot background generator and guide creator in one place.
