Yo!
So, I have that trigger for screen recording. Now, I like the native Touch Bar for that because it allows me to stop the video and (more important) display the size of the record.
Is there a possibility to display the macOS Touch Bar while screen recording? Tried to find the process name with a CAG, didn't work.
Toggling the Touch Bar as an associated action works, but I have to reactivate it by myself at the end. Not handy at all!!
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot!! Stay safe, stay inside,

You could use an app like Touch Bar Simulator https://sindresorhus.com/touch-bar-simulator/
My bad! What I meant was just to disable the BTT Touch Bar while screen recording, and automatically enable it again as soon as I stop recording
Or, as a hack/#feature-requests, add a widget that gets the information of the screen recording tool and displays it in the Touch Bar. No clue if this is doable though
Ah sorry I misunderstood.
Unfortunately I think there is no way to figure out whether an app is currently recording the screen, thus this can't be used as a trigger.
I wanted to add a new "if process with name is running" condition to the CAG's, maybe that could help :-/
This could be great indeed! Waiting for a BTT update with this feature!
Added in 3.349 alpha (will be online in 5 minutes). Note sure if it will help in your case, but it's a good feature anyways.
However it might take a moment before the processes are updated, getting the list of processes is a relatively expensive task, thus BTT is only doing it when it thinks the processes have changed.

ayy time for me to help you (if you still need it....)
Command + Control + esc stops screen recording (in Quicktime Player). So just make a button and set it to Command + Control + esc.. you know what to do
