PxKeystrokesForScreencasts

If you do screen casts frequently, especially if you record tutorials, you might need a way to display keystrokes on your screen in real-time, without having to edit the resulting video afterward.

In this case, you might want to try third-party applications such as PxKeystrokesForScreencasts that can help you achieve quick, convenient results.

You can turn to this application if you need to display keystrokes on your screen as you press them. This tool can come quite handy when you're performing screencasts, especially if you record tutorials that include heavy keyboard use.

This app displays a small overlay window on your screen, where you can see the keystrokes appear in real-time. The mouse cursor's position is highlighted, and your mouse actions are also displayed on the screen, above the cursor.

Once you start PxKeystrokesForScreencasts, you will notice that the overlay window is small and nonintrusive. However, after pressing the Ctrl + Alt + Shift, you can right-click and drag the box to resize it freely. The text box within the main window can be resized as well by using the same technique.

The key combination mentioned earlier helps you activate the overlay windows' auxiliary options such as resizing or accessing the configuration menu by clicking the small gear-shaped button.

If you're not satisfied with some of the app's settings, you can adjust some of its parameters so that it suits your needs more efficiently. For instance, you can choose the text's alignment, direction, style, color, font, timeout, and distance.

It is also possible to toggle the mouse cursor's position, adjust its opacity and size, set its color and enable the visibility of mouse actions such as scrolling, clicking or double-clicking.

To wrap it up, you can use PxKeystrokesForScreencasts if you need to show real-time keystrokes, mouse actions and your cursor's position on your screen.
