Sorry, one of the main strengths of the UI is that it isn't done this
way. The point is to provide a dialog style UI, no menu etc. to make
it very quick to use. This has downsides too of course, but it would
become a different program if that was changed. A short lived effort
to do so is kgrab in extra gear which is a fork of ksnapshot, but I
don't believe the maintainer is actively work on it. He doesn't seem
to have updated to take account of any fixes etc. I've done.

Cheers

Rich.
