One of the KDE Plasma features I use almost in daily basis is the MouseMark.
Go to your settings, in Desktop Effects, Enable the MouseMark (you can change the settings of it in the button in front of it). Then press Meta+Shift and move your mouse to doodle, or press and release Meta+Shift+Ctrl to define beginning and end of an arrow (it will draw the rest.
Interestingly enough, it have been in Plasma for the past 16 years:

Kde is truly matured
I mean kde , not just plasma!
The whole kde
@Mehrad @kde@lemmy.kde.social @kde@floss.social Can't you just do that with a screenshot utility like Flameshot?
Can you also send images of you using it? Not that I didn't believe it but I want to see how other people have been using it
Interesting, I think there was a Firefox addon way back that did this and mouse gestures.
What do you use it for?
Anyone know how to make it more intuitive? Like, only allow one, use an easier keyboard shortcut to activate?
I couldnt find "autoremove" and how to change the shortcut to activate
@Pantherina I don't know what you mean by Autoremove, but here are some tips:
Undo the last line by Meta+Shift+F12
Clean everything by Meta+Shift+F11
In the latest version (at least the one that is in KDE's git repo, users can change all those keybindings. Checkout mousemark.kcfg and mousemark\_config.ui files in this link:

I don't yet have #Plasma6, so I'm not sure if it is already shipped there or not. But the code is done and it is just the matter of time :)
Thanks!

Awesome feature, however, the arror part doesn't work for me. When I press Meta+Shift+Ctrl and move the mouse, it looks like this:
