It's a good idea. I'll think about it.

I definitely would recommend using ScreenFlow for capturing screencast type videos where the content is at least a little bit pre-meditated. It will let you crop the screen after the fact, pan around, and do all sorts of neat edits. It's really well done and worth the money. It might fit your use case better. I'm not affiliated with it any way, just a happy user.

we actually have something in linux we use, which allows us to set a 'position' for recording (sets a border to record in) basically, and we mainly use it for confirming terminal output / quick runs of stuff while on screen shares, or in slack.

Its nothing thats 'ever' predetermined to be shown, its all stuff thats either on demand, or 'how did you do that' rather quickly.

being able to just hit a button, after i did the 'thing' would be super beneficial.
