Screen Recorder capturing extra content

Hi all,

I would like to use the screen-recorder step-by-step tool to help teach a new software.  Unfortunately, when I use the tool, it consistently includes area outside of my specified window.  Meaning I want to record a single window of the application.  The recorder picks that up and also shows my laptop background, even though I have the application at full-screen.  

This would not be an issue if I had the ability to crop out or resize the recording.  Is there a way to fix this?  I have tried adjusting the window size with the recording tool and I have tried running full screen recording.

  • You can edit the screen recording. From the timeline, highlight the screencast and then at the top, pick edit video. You can crop it, or trim the beginning or end.
