Description Reru 2023-05-15 02:43:43 UTC

Hello, I would like an option added that allows for capturing a specific 'Rectangular Region' the exact same way the screenshot 'Rectangular Region' button works but for recording of course. This was a really nice feature of "SimpleScreenRecorder" that I was using before.

Is there any current workaround for this?
