Option and drag to duplicate. Fantastic!!! Another tip for when you take a screenshot while it’s still in the floating thumbnail you can quickly drag it into any app you are working in such as Mail, notes, etc. without having it save somewhere.

In preview/screenshot copy/paste a selection -> drag to reposition it (= level 2). Repeat with other selections (= level 3, 4, ...). Cut and paste it to the up most level part by part if needed to rearrange the stack. Choose "Color correction" > "sharpness" to blur all (level 1). Sorry for my quick-english, Servus.

@@macmost Thanks for the reply! I have been checking line and color settings for months. I just found a support doc on the Apple site that suggested an NVRAM reset which I and it worked for a while. but as soon as I use a few apps and about 6gb of memory the markup circle on the right disappears. But if I open the screen grab file it's there. I thought it might be a low memory issue but I had the same issue on my MacPro running Monterey and 64gb of memory. I found a lot of other posts with the same issue and Apple's tech doc says that if you don't frequently restart your Mac things like that can happen, so I'll consider it a "Design Feature" (or flaw)

The most important thing is to store it in a cool, dry place where the temperature won't change much. Apple recommends getting the battery power near 50% and then shutting it down.
