Description

Turns the X11 desktop into a drawing surface for annotations, teaching, presentations, or quick visual explanations. It is useful when you need to mark the screen live instead of editing a screenshot afterward.

Screen drawing can cover other windows and may be confusing during shared sessions if left enabled. Test shortcuts and clearing behavior before using it in a presentation.
