Question about recording screen and creating screencasts
May 18, 2016
The newbie here again with another question! I am watching the Screencasts and Software Simulations tutorial (#19). Here is the link: https://community.articulate.com/series/getting-started-with-articulate-storyline-2/articles/recording-a-screencast-video ... as I watch him show how to record what he's doing in PowerPoint, I have a problem. I currently am using a Mac (and believe it or not, I figured out myself watching another tutorial how to install Parallels then Storyline so I could learn this amazing software!) BUT of course, my version of PowerPoint is a Mac version of Office installed on a Mac...I don't believe I can use the Storyline recording option to record PP when PP will only work on the Mac side of my screen :( Does anyone know if it's possible??? THANK you so much!

Hi Tracy!
I'm not on a Mac, so hopefully someone will chime in if I'm incorrect, but I do think you're right and you would need to be within your VM.
Thank you for your reply, Leslie...I do think I've read since I posted this question that I would need a version for the Windows side. Blah! :( I did figure out to use Quicktime to record the screencast, but that's not as great as being able to use everything Storyline offers. Thanks again!
Glad you were able to find a solution if needed though Tracy.
