    Hi there!

     

    Youcef from the Capture team here.

    I just wanted to let you that this has been solved on the latest version of the app. Give it a try on dropbox.com/capture.

    Thank you very much!

Hi Diego Baragiola, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

 

Are you able to uninstall and reinstall the app to see if this resolves the behavior?

 

Keep me updated with any progress!

    Hi Jay,

    Thanks for the hint.

    I have re-installed the capture app but it still behaves as before. If I use Windows capture the screenshot gets embedded in the body text, but with Dropbox capture it keeps on creating a *.png attachment.
