It should be accessed by the same hotkey indicated in the link you shared. Screen recorder is actually within the screenshot utility gui as well.

Heres where you can toggle between screenshot and screencast

Is that toggle not available in your pc? could you share a photo?

First thanks for helping!

Yes, that what happening! Unfortunately I can't screenshot the GUI and I my phone is currently charging. But the toggle is not available,

Oh, my bad, lol. Course we cant.

According to the arch wiki it seems you need a couple extra packages:

In order to use the screencast feature the gst-plugin-pipewire and gst-plugins-good packages need to be installed.

Could that fix the issue?

Yes! Thank you so much!

I yet have to learn my way around using the wiki and fixing things myself.
