I want a live viewport: freeze is optional/transient, and moving the frame always returns to live OCR. Right now freeze is sticky by design, its bad UX. #665

Description

@PowerfulShell

Describe the bug
GrabFrame should behave like a live OCR viewport.
It can freeze temporarily.
But any time you move the GrabFrame window, it should automatically unfreeze and resume live OCR.
Clicking another app should not permanently trap it in freeze.
Left-click tray launch should open the same live GrabFrame as right-click.
Freeze should become a temporary state, not a sticky state.

Where is the bug

  • Grab Frame

To Reproduce
open GrabFrame by:
left click tray, instant freeze.
right click menu tray, click elsewhere will freeze.

Expected behavior
GrabFrame should behave like a live OCR viewport.
It can freeze temporarily.
But any time you move the GrabFrame window, it should automatically unfreeze and resume live OCR.
Clicking another app should not permanently trap it in freeze.
Left-click tray launch should open the same live GrabFrame as right-click.
Freeze should become a temporary state, not a sticky state.
