Even more, you can set a hot key to display a note, a timer to hide the note and a macro to insert preset items into the note’s content. This tool is very flexible and allows you to customize every aspect of the note: font, size, screen position, background color and frame color. These are included in the application and allow you to comment any part of the desktop. If you do not want to record your voice but still need to explain the images to the viewer you can use Screen notes. With this option you can really explain every action at the moment that you are doing it. The application is a good tool for presentations because it can record sound from the computer or from a microphone.

For the main actions such as starting or pausing the recording, the application allows you to define shortcut keys and keyboard combinations. The frame can be moved during the recording to emphasize certain actions or tasks. In order to optimize the size of the video file the program can be configured to record the entire screen, a window or you can select the exact area that you work on. The output files are AVI clips that can be opened by every media player. The program can be considered a lightweight desktop capture program that helps you create video tutorials with ease.
