To record your screen while actively drawing on it, you can use a screen recording tool that offers drawing capabilities during recording, such as ScreenPal. This feature allows you to annotate or draw directly on the screen content as you are capturing your video.
Drawing While Recording with ScreenPal
ScreenPal offers a built-in "Draw and Zoom" mode that enables you to add drawings to your screen recordings in real-time.
Here's how to access and use this feature:
- Open the Screen Recorder: Launch ScreenPal's Screen Recorder application.
- Locate the Draw Icon: Look to the right of the 'Record' button within the recorder interface. You will find a pen icon.
- Enter Draw and Zoom Mode:
- Click on the pen icon to activate the Draw and Zoom mode.
- Alternatively, if you are recording in full-screen mode, you can use a keyboard hotkey:
- For Windows, use the hotkey Shift-Alt-D.
- For Mac, use the hotkey Shift-Option-D.
Once in Draw and Zoom mode, you can use various tools (like pens, shapes, text) provided by ScreenPal to draw or annotate on your screen as the recording progresses. This is particularly useful for tutorials, explanations, or highlighting specific areas on your screen.
