Tips for precisely adjusting the recording area window
When setting the recording area in oCam, being able to precisely adjust the position and size of the window is very useful. oCam provides intuitive shortcut keys for this, allowing users to fine-tune the recording area exactly as needed. Below are some tips for precisely adjusting the recording area window and how to use the shortcut keys.
In oCam, you can drag the window used to set the recording area with the mouse to move or resize it, but using shortcut keys allows for much more precise adjustment. Shortcut keys are especially useful when you need to set an exact position or size.
Adjusting the recording area position
- Arrow keys: Press the arrow keys (up, down, left, right) to move the recording area window precisely one pixel at a time. This is useful when fine adjustment is needed.
- Ctrl + Arrow keys: If you want to move it by a larger amount, use the arrow keys while holding down the Ctrl key. This combination moves the window more quickly, making it easier to adjust the position efficiently.
Adjusting the recording area size
- Shift + Arrow keys: Hold down the Shift key and use the arrow keys to resize the recording area window. The up and down arrow keys adjust the height of the window, and the left and right arrow keys adjust the width. This also allows precise adjustment one pixel at a time.
- Shift + Ctrl + Arrow keys: If you want to resize the window by a larger amount, use the arrow keys while holding down both the Shift and Ctrl keys. This combination changes the window size more quickly in larger increments, which is useful when major resizing is needed.
These shortcut keys help you adjust oCam's recording area settings very precisely and carefully. For example, if you want to record only a specific game window or a certain part of the screen, you can first set the approximate area with the mouse and then use the shortcut keys to fine-tune it pixel by pixel for the exact result you want.
In this way, oCam provides user-friendly shortcut keys that support precise adjustment of the recording area. Make active use of these shortcut keys to set the recording area more accurately and efficiently.
Click Tools - Options on the oCam main menu, then open the Effects category to check the Highlight Effect settings.

The Highlight Effect is used to help viewers immediately recognize the current position of the mouse cursor while watching a video.
The options are described below.
Color
- This is the color applied to the highlight effect. It is set to yellow by default.
Size
- When the highlight effect is enabled, a semi-transparent circle is drawn around the mouse cursor. This option sets the size of that circle. It is set to 90 by default.
Soft Edge
- The higher this value becomes, the softer the edge of the circle appears.

Opacity
- The lower this value is, the more transparent the circle becomes.
Preview
- Lets you preview the mouse effect you have configured.
If the opacity value is set too high, the highlight effect may cover the part of the screen where the mouse is located. For that reason, it is best to use an appropriate opacity setting.
