My software simulation recording has typing appearing outside of text area and then it appears in text area once typing is completed. How can I avoid or fix it?

Can you please check the Display percentage? For software simulations and for Video Demo recording you need to set that percentage back to 100%. With high-resolutions screens the OS will often set it higher for reasons of readabiity.

By the way, there is no need to enter a question more than once on the forums. I deleted the second thread.

Two things to try.

The first is if you are in Windows and have Scale and layout set to something other than 100%, change it back to 100%. Do this at least while recording software simulations.

The second thing is that you can run into problems when you try to capture an application on a monitor other than your primary monitor. For example, if you have a laptop and an external monitor, try moving the application you are recording to the laptop screen itself.
