The app is great ! BUT, on Gmail, I'm having a hard time making a JPG screenshot of a scrolling webpage 🤔 As of now, (1) either it screenshots the page whitout scrolling (when selecting "documentElement") … which is not what I want, or, (2) if I select the other proposition of the extension (in my case it looked something like "div.Nu.S3.aZ6#:1h"), well … it hides the mouse and the scrollbars, the extension icon stays red … and nothing else happens until I reload the page ( ^ᴗ^)'

This is exactly what I needed. A fabulous tool and long overdue... I would have given 5 stars if I could figure out how to demonstrate rollover effects and if the "mouse gesture" worked for me too. Unfortunately, the red cursor in the tutorial video disappears once my mouse is moved off of the "scroll capture" window.
