Press (D) — Switch to Paint Mode (Drawing)

Press (H) — Switch to Highlight Mode

Press (T) — Switch to Annotation Mode (Text)

⌨️ New Keyboard Shortcuts

You have new shortcuts to help you switch between modes while your pair shares their screen…

While you’re in annotation mode:

- Shift+Enter — Adds a line break

- Escape — Exits Annotation Mode

Text can be set to stay onscreen just like a drawing (it’s the same setting under Preferences > General).

🟡 Tuple supports screen sharing on Wayland!

Adding this feature wasn’t easy..
