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.
 
To enable keystroke recording:
1. On the control panel, click the keyboard icon: .  The keyboard options panel will appear.
 
2. In the keystroke recording options panel, select one of the options:
  • Keyboard shortcuts only — only key combinations such as Ctrl+C or Shift+Control+Esc will be shown 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.
Once enabled, the keystroke recording icon should turn orange .
To turn off keystroke recording, click the keyboard button once again and disable the options. 

Tip: 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.
