Voila Display Dimming

Spoinlar

Hi,

I have a feature request for Voila... I'd like to have the option to turn off the display dimming when recording a portion of the display. Perhaps, as an alternative, a thin box could be drawn around the area being recorded? There are times when I want to record a section of the screen, but need to be able to continue to work on sections that aren't being recorded without having the display dimmed...

Thanks for your time!

Yes, I have *exactly* this same request! I searched the Preferences hoping to find a way to do this, but apparently it doesn't exist. I have things being recorded off on a second monitor while I continue to work on the main desktop, and having the whole thing dimmed is ... unfortunate. If this could be addressed, it would be great.

(Speaking of preferences, is there one for the colours in the forum? It looked fine in Safari before I registered, but now the text of the discussion titles is white, on a white background, so that I need to highlight the whole page to read them! Weird.)

Hi DaveMc

The screen is dimmed in order to highlight the selected region. We will consider this as a feature request and will try to add this in our coming updates, but i cannot promise you anything.

Yes, I'd be very keen for this. I often record on one screen while trying to work on another.
