well, what the title says,
the side of the drawer (when it's closed) is visible in screenshots,
I wonder if it's possible (with some tricks in overlay programming) to make it not appear when a screenshot is taken

Why not make a quick tile that turns off the drawer, then by pressing it again you get the drawer back, or detect the screenshot, automatically delete it, turn off the drawer and take the screenshot again and enable the drawer again

a whole macro for screenshots ? 😂
it's too much I think and also I have an app with which I adjust image format and other image parameters and I am afraid this functionality is not possible with macrodroid
however I hope macrodroid dev may see this as easy to implement (I know that screenshot areas can be masked programmatically)

you could just make it transparent :ROFLMAO:
but I like at this time to see the borders because I use other apps that offer menus by swiping too
and so I am able to know where to swipe and bring either the app menu or the macrodroid drawer

Or...

T: Flip Device - Any -> Face Down
A: MacroDroid Drawer - Configure Swipe Area - Opacity = 0%
A: Wait Before Next Action - 10 seconds
A: MacroDroid Drawer - Configure Swipe Area - Opacity = 100%

It's exactly what I do! At boot time I make the drawer clearly visible (with a hard red color) for a couple of seconds to remember its location on the screen and then I make it 100% transparent. It works very well!
