MenuBarCodeReader

This is a small mac utility to quickly and seamlessly scan QR codes (or other bar codes) which are visible on your screen. The app nests itself in your menu bar. On succesful scans the parsed data is available on your clipboard.

menubarcodereader's Issues

[Improvement] Show pane with QR text

At the moment, the text is copied to the clipboard. I thought it might be an improvement to also show a pane with (a list of) scanned text...

[Improvement] Scan pointer image

When you start scanning, would be nice if the mouse pointer changed to a more "scan-like" image. Much like when you grab a screenshot.

Prevents the escape button from being pressed

Version: 10.14.6

It took forever for me to figure out what was causing this issue, but whenever I have MenuBarCodeReader open the escape button does not work.
It doesn't matter if I use my actual keyboard or applescript's key codes, no programs detect the escape button being pressed down while this application is open.
Pressing down the fn key bypasses this issue.
