I'm trying to record a video and it's all working great except when I hit the file button on my application (visual studio). It doesn't show the drop down menu, it's invisible. I couldn't find anything online to help. Not sure if this is a bug or something I'm doing wrong. I noticed it doesn't work in notepad either.

I don't know if this helps but when I go to upload log files this is what I get-

Have you tried game capture with this check?

I've been using Window Capture not game capture. I just tried using game capture with that option checked and it didn't seem to help. I'm trying to make a visual studio tutorial and Window Capture was working fine except it doesn't show any option menu's, or even right click.

Try OpenGL instead Direct3D11 (advnced options)
Worse performance but perhaps is the solution

Display Capture works, but that seems to capture everything. But yea the drop down menu shows then. I also just downloaded another recording application xsplit and I'm having the same problem. It records the screen but not any menu options.

Yea I guess that's what I'll have to do, and then trim the video. Or maybe set up hotkeys to record and stop record without having to switch screens.

Another option: Make an overlay with an image and a window (a frame). Capture display and crop it to adjust it to that window.

Thanks for the help. I put the hot key to my mouse wheel so it's actually super easy to get things working, actually even easier then it was before.
