Arrows, boxes, text and steps for pointing things out. Blur for hiding them. Keep all eight, just the essentials, or exactly the ones you use.
Point at the thing that matters. Curve it, colour it, change its width.

All eight, plus Send, Ask and Save as. Or pick your own in Custom.
Five swatches set in Settings. Paste a hex, or pick a colour straight from the capture.
