Recording Settings Overview

Adjust highlights, audio, and camera to fit how you work.

Dubble gives you flexible control over how your recordings look and feel. You can adjust highlight options, camera placement, audio input, and onscreen controls to create guides that match your workflow. Most of these options are available in both our desktop app and Chrome extension. You can change these settings by clicking the Dubble icon for the app or Chrome extension and selecting “Recording Settings.”

Highlight Color

Choose the color for your cursor highlight to make it easier for viewers to follow along.

The color picker supports:

  • Sliders

  • HEX (e.g. #D87645)

  • RGBA (Red, Green, Blue, Alpha for transparency)

  • HSBA (Hue, Saturation, Brightness, Alpha)

You can use the sliders or enter exact values to set the color that best fits your style or brand.

Show Highlight Box

Decide when a highlight box appears around your clicks:

  • No: The highlight box won’t be displayed.

  • Only on Click: The highlight box appears briefly when you click.

  • Always Show: The highlight box is visible when hovering over elements as well as on clicks.

Include Screen Recording

Toggle whether your screen is captured when recording a new guide:

  • Yes: Include a screen recording video in your guide.

  • No: Record the guide without video.
