Add hotkey to start/stop Kap recording, not just trigger Kap #653

Open nikitavoloboev opened 5 years ago

nikitavoloboev commented 5 years ago

macOS version: 10.14.3 Kap version: 3.0.0-beta.5

Steps to reproduce

  1. Activate Kap with hotkey or without. Kap shows up with area I want to select.
  2. Select area I want.
  3. Wish there was a hotkey to start a recording.
  4. Press hotkey to stop recording (hotkey to trigger Kap works here 🎊)

Current behaviour

Step 3. can't be done currently.

Expected behaviour

There is a hotkey to actually start a Kap recording without having to manually press the big red button.

I think it would be nice to use the the Trigger Kap hotkey to actually start Kap recording when in context of choosing an area to select for recording.

Workaround

None.
