Pause screen recording in QuickTime X I found a screen recording feature of QuickTime X very useful. Except you can't pause the recording, as in most other screen recording programs. Or can you?
record as usual
when ready to pause, move your mouse over to the recording box and click anywhere to activate that box (the Quicktime Program)
press "option button" on keyboard and the record bar will change to Pause ||
BUT, this DOES NOT PAUSE the timer, to do that,click the Pause ||
Now, it's truly PAUSED and you can let go of the "option" button
Now, the record button turns RED, when in this mode, it's PAUSED
To restart recording, simply click the RED button
Do steps 2 to 7 all over again for another pause in your recording
