Raise your hand if you're using the Camtasia PowerPoint Add-in
Posted on Thursday June 1, 2006 by Betsy Weber
I have a question for you about the Camtasia PowerPoint add-in, and I really want to hear your answer!
What if we were to change the default to starting your PowerPoint recording in Pause Mode? Currently, when you use the add-in, Camtasia Studio starts recording your PowerPoint presentation immediately.
Troy Stein (Camtasia Studio Project Manager) made a 90 second video showing both sides. Click the screenshot below to start the video.
Thoughts about changing the default? What would make the Camtasia Studio PowerPoint add-in better?

I like the idea of changing the default to be in paused mode. Good idea!

No question in my mind, it should start recording in "paused mode" so that you can check/adjust the audio level and not have to waste time clicking and unclicking checkboxes.

That would be great since I already pause the recording to hide the mouse pointer in PowerPoint.

Starting in Paused mode is preferred. It takes time for people to orient themselves as to what's happening on the screen in front of them. Plus, I prefer that my viewers have the choice of what they want to watch.
The above URL is my first Camtasia project. It is quite large and not perfect. There are some edits that I want to do/need to be done.
