2 Small Suggestions for Action "Take Screenshot"

Hi


My phone's display resolution is 1920x1080.
When I use the Take Screenshot action, a .PNG file is created, and its size is 3.1MB.


I would like to suggest 2 small options for the Take Screenshot action:

The first:
Resize: will have 2 possible values: 50%, or 25%
so choosing "25%" for example, will make the image file's resolution 480x270, instead of the original 1920x1080.
this already will decrease the file size by 75%...


The second:
File Type: will have 2 possible values: .PNG, or .JPG
so choosing .JPG, will further decrease the file size,
and choosing .JPG is relevant for cases where we do not need every pixel to be identical what as on the screen during the screenshot action.

Those 2 small additions will be really useful for many people,
especially with today's high resolution displays.


And while this might be accomplished in other ways, (such as with other actions: Load Image, Save Image, Resize Image, etc)
having it as options inside the action is quite needed, and will make the code much shorter and cleaner.


What do you think?


Thank you

All this can be made using JF. Saving the file to another location first, or loading it into a variable instead, and then resizing and changing the output format will be the last steps.
