Screenshot preview duration Big Sur

How can we extend the time a screen shot stays in the lower right hand corner of the screen before disappearing, or add COPY to the list of options after clicking it; e.g. Preview, Add to Photos, Mail, Messages etc.? Thnx

screenshot preview Hey, I just wanted to complain about the screenshot preview. I use the screenshot option constantly for work (won't elaborate) but since recent updates (I am now using Mojave), there is a preview of the screenshot. I have to wait until it disappears to take a new screenshot. It is very frustrating and for those who need to work fast, waiting some seconds for each screenshot is too long. After some research I found out that there is no way to change settings and have no preview. Margarita

Mojave/Catalina Screenshot thumbnail duration Hey, im wondering how to increase the duration of the thumbnail in macOS Mojave/Catalina. I believe it appears for about 5s, which is convenient to drag and drop on Safari or Photoshop. I want it to last more, around 8s for example. Sometimes im too slow to reach the screenshot and it saves on my Desktop. Ive seen this topic around the internet but I've never seen any definitive answer. Maybe something we can change throughout defaults com.apple?
