If the site blocks this, it may briefly scroll the image into view to capture it safely. - Some pages (like the browser’s own settings or store pages) block extensions from running. Use the extension on regular websites. Troubleshooting - "No area selected": open the popup → Start selection, then drag on the page - If a site blocks access to the image, the extension uses a safe fallback and still provides a preview - If you don’t see the context menu entries, re‑install or re‑enable the extension Support - Feedback and issues: use the store listing feedback channel
