Description alexander.w.minchin 2023-08-12 02:49:54 UTC 
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the annotation tool and change a few annotation tool settings from their defaults. For example, I often use the Rectangle tool, change the color to red (default is gray), and switch to "Border and No Fill" (default is filled).
2. Annotate the image, hit Annotation done, and close Spectacle.
3. Re-open Spectacle, take another screenshot and re-open the annotation tool.

OBSERVED RESULT
Annotation tool settings revert to their defaults.

EXPECTED RESULT
Previously selected tool settings are restored.

This is rather old version of Spectacle. Persistence was implemented for a later release. I'm using the upcoming 23.08 where I can confirm it works, but I'm pretty sure it worked in 23.04 too.
