MacOs edit picture

I take a screenshot. I would like to edit the picture meaning adding an arrow and marking something with a red circle.

Is there a standard till in macOS which supports this?

Ventura: screenshot markup Hi! I need some help with screenshot tool. In previous MacOS versions when I made a screenshot and open it clicking on its subnail it opens in markup mode with pen tool as active. So, I was able to edit the screenshot instantly. But after update it started open in preview mode and I have to activate markup with an additional click. How can I return my previous ability?

Screenshot changes in Ventura - No edit mode by default With the update to Mac OS X Ventura, it seems like they have changed how the screenshots work. In previous versions, after taking a screenshot, it would open in edit mode so you could start drawing straight away. Now in Ventura this is not the case anymore, and you need to click a couple of times to be able to start drawing, which is quite annoying as the main use case when taking a screenshot is to draw/annotate something on it. Is there a way to change this so it behaves like it did before? Any settings or something I'm missing? Thanks.

If you add screen shots to Photos you can use it as well.
