Screenshot app: shortcut to end recording

When the macOS Screenshot app is open and either Record option is selected, Enter is a shortcut to start recording; is there a shortcut to stop recording instead of having to use the menubar button?

Hello Connor Hawke.


Welcome to Apple Support Communities.


If I'm understanding correctly, you would like to know if there is another way to stop a screen recording on your Mac. I will be glad to assist.


Please see the following, from:


How to record the screen on your Mac


  1. "To stop recording, click  in the menu bar. Or press Command-Control-Esc (Escape)."


Cheers.
