Thanks! I was able to install version 3.14 for Blender 4.1

[@earvinbaraka]

Awesome!

[@CountryGirlSouth]

I must say thanks! I legit was doing something wrong by importing my info from 3.6 to 4.0. Thank You!!

[@earvinbaraka]

Glad I could help!

[@UZPvNUCaaQdF]

Guys, it looks like the secret (not mentioned in this video) is to actually hit the Update button of the addon in the Preferences and RESTART BLENDER. If you don't already have it installed, it might only work right away if you don't already have an older version activated.

Version 3.12 for Blender 4.0

[@Zippyheru]

This is not supported for Blender 4.1, for anyone wondering. Guess we'll have to wait for a higher version than 3.14.0

[@slingblade313]

Doesn't work either. It's enabled, doesn't show anything in real time or in a screen recording.

[@earvinbaraka]

Kindly check - github.com/nutti/Screencast-Keys/releases, for the Latest Updates.
