By using the BB recorder, I was able to find a recording setting that also made Camtasia work. It had to do with recording layered windows. Works like a charm now.

Thanks!

>>>>I've started experimenting with Emerson Reed's themed controls for VFP and would like to record a quick demo for people here. The only problem is that every recording product I've tried fails to capture the GDI balloon tip that appears when the mouse hovers over a control. Does anyone know of a screen video capture product that can also capture that balloon?

>>Camtasia, CamStudio, Taksi, Fraps. They all capture everything except for that CTL32 balloon tip. Well, all of them except Fraps - I can't even get the hotkey recording on that one to even work.
