The screen recording process is structured as a wizard, so that you won't get lost among settings and stuff. First, you need to select what you want to record. You can choose to record a single window, a rectangular area of the screen or you can capture your full screen. Then, you need to point to that window you want recorded or select the area of the screen you want captured. The last step is to choose the name of your project and the location where you want it saved and you're ready to go. Hitting 'Ctrl+Alt+F10' on your keyboard will start the recording, 'Ctrl+Alt+F11' will stop the recording, while 'Ctrl+Alt+F12' will pop up the program window. You can choose to record sound as well.

When the recording is complete, you can edit the video using the program's features. You can add shapes, notes or buttons. You can also add formatted text or images. The files can be exported as SWF files.
