The concept of Jing is the always-ready program that instantly captures and shares images and video…from your computer to anywhere.

Setting Your Preferences

Posted on Monday August 13, 2007 by Matt Dyer

Preferences in the More ball is one of the few places the Windows and Mac clients are different. Even then, the differences are pretty small.

On the Windows Client Preferences panel, you can:

  • Change your Screencast.com account login information.
  • Choose whether Jing launches when you boot your machine.
  • Select a hotkey to capture.
  • Hide the sun launcher (continue to capture using the hotkey or the taskbar icon).
  • Choose a location for the launcher.

On the Mac Client, Preferences is a bit sparser at the moment:

  • Set a hotkey.
  • Use the menubar instead of the sun launcher.
  • Launch Jing on startup.

On the Mac, you can move the sun by dragging its center. You can move it to any corner, or any edge except where the Dock or Menubar are.

Tony Santamaria :

So what is the default hotkey combination to start up Jing. I turned off the setting that has it sitting on the right hand corner of my PowerBook's screen, and now I don't see it and can't get it to work for me.
