- The following window pops up:
By default, Camtasia records the entire screen of your main monitor. Choose this option when your recording content includes:
A large or full-screen application or web browser.
Multiple applications or web browser windows.
Action that spans across the entire screen including the dock, application menus, etc
You can also record a custom region. Record a region of the screen when:
You only want to show a specific window or region of the screen, no extra content.
You need to record at specific dimensions.
You want to record at dimensions larger or smaller than one of Camtasia's presets, but still maintain the same aspect ratio of the preset.
