StepGrab 1.6: now on Windows, reads button names on the Mac, plus codes up to 100% off

Hey everyone, Julian here. It's been a while since my last update in here, so here's what happened since.

As a thank you for following: . Four levels from 10% to 100%, the page shows how many are left, and there are only five 100% ones. They're for the license from my website (Mac download and Windows), not the Mac App Store.

StepGrab is on Windows now. It's in the (Windows 10 22H2 and 11), and projects open on both, so you can record on the Mac and finish the guide on a PC or the other way round.

On the Mac you can now also as a notarized .dmg. If you give it Accessibility access, it asks the app what you clicked and gets the real name of the button or menu item, so the step says "Click Save" instead of guessing from the screenshot. can't do that because of the sandbox, so it keeps using text recognition.

A few more things in 1.6:

- Recording a single window gives you only that window now, even if something else is on top of it. Its menus and popovers still show up.

- A project is one file now, and when you save a copy you can burn the blacked out parts in. Whoever gets the file can't just remove the black bar.

- One Pro key from the website works for the Mac download and Windows, on two devices.

Free still has unlimited recordings with up to 15 steps per guide. Pro is $2.99 a month, $12.99 a year or $44.99 once.

Most of what changed came from feedback, so I'm curious: if you're on Windows, what's the first thing you'd want to document with it?
