Recording keystrokes
If you're making a tutorial that uses keyboard shortcuts, it's helpful to display them on screen for your viewers. Enable keystroke recording to show the keys you pressed at the bottom of the video.
-
Open the Settings menu.
-
Choose Preferences.
-
In the Preferences window, switch to the Effects tab.
-
To enable keystroke recording, select one of the options:
-
Keyboard shortcuts only — only key combinations such as C or Esc will show up on screen. Letters and keys that do not cause an action will not be displayed.
-
All keystrokes — each key you press will appear on screen, including letters and numbers.
To turn off keystroke recording, open the Effects preferences once again and select Do not capture keystrokes.
Tips:
-
Avoid entering any passwords or other sensitive information while you're recording a video with keystroke recording: if you share the video, your viewers will be able to see each character you type.
