I'm trying to capture onboarding screens for my iOS app.
I'd like to grab the screen while I'm doing thinks like pressing a button, but I'm not finding any way to do that.
I've tried:
- Contorting my fingers to press an app button on the screen while pressing the home and on buttons. Result, no screenshot taken.
- Trying to capture an image of the iOS simulator on the Mac using timed screen capture Grab. But when I start the timed capture the simulator no longer responds to the mouse. I've also got Snapz Pro, but it doesn't seem to provide timed capture.
- Trying to start a movie recording of the iPad and capturing again with Grab while playing the recording. If I try to capture the window, when I click on it QuickTime player shows the player controls which ruins the capture. The same thing if I try to capture a selection.
The only thing I've found which kind of works is to play the quicktime movie, pause it, then use grab to do a full screen capture clicking outside of the QuickTime player window, and then crop the result in PhotoShop. But this is a pain.
Is there an easier way to accomplish this?
