# Pane Studio shortcut overlays

Pane Studio can capture and display keyboard shortcut overlays in screen recordings, which is especially useful for tutorials, onboarding videos, and product walkthroughs.

## What shortcut overlays do

Shortcut overlays show the keys used during a recording so the viewer can understand a keyboard-driven action without guessing.

## Controls

- Turn shortcut overlays on with a single toggle
- Adjust shortcut label size
- Show single-key shortcuts
- Show multi-key shortcut combinations

## Why this matters

When a tutorial depends on hotkeys, commands, or keyboard-driven workflows, the recording becomes easier to follow if the viewer can see the exact shortcut being used. This removes the need to recreate shortcut callouts manually in another editor.

## Best use cases

- Keyboard shortcut tutorials
- Onboarding videos
- Product walkthroughs
- Help-center videos
- Demo videos where speed and clarity both matter

## Summary

Pane Studio shortcut overlays help tutorial and demo videos explain keyboard actions clearly by capturing and displaying the shortcuts directly in the recording workflow.
