Thanks for creating this. A puzzle with 45 sum cages like that is called a Windoku and I've done some before after learning there are tricks to identify further hidden extra regions in the grid where the digits 1-9 can't repeat.
It might help people looking for this type of puzzle on here maybe try to add the tag saying Widoku (Variant) and if it's do-able add an image of your puzzle.
I know SudokuPad has a "screenshot" function in the cog wheel options menu which even though my computer is slow got I got it to work the second time after clicking and has options just to take the grid without solved numbers in. I've also seen the image producing option on some setting sites.
I'm sure there are guides about uploading an image on here as others have achieved it.
