Screencast making F360 act strange

With no screencast running F360 is working fine
With screencast recording it is making F360 behave very oddly
Not sure if it is just making it unresponsive (note the busy circle when I make the first sketch, then the square doesn't get de selected after I extrude)

When trying to place the sketch that is just a circle on the extruded box- the mouse does not snap to any edge/centre - or even indicate I have the circle tool selected

Frustrating... as I made this to try and show how to make this shape on the F360 facebook page to a new user...where it is important to try and show him the expected correct behaviour ...but normal functionality is seemingly lost when using screencast

I have re-downloaded and installed screencast (so I know I am using the latest)
I have restarted the PC and Fusion several times, but this odd behaviour is always there

Anything I can do to make screencast to not break my F360 as I really enjoy trying to help new users and it is a valuable tool I would like to use more

I have made quite a few Screencast using Fusion 360 and cannot say I have see a lot of issues   An occasional dialog box I cannot select the contents with the mouse and I have to backspace it out.  My main reason for responding is to call you attention to the Screencast forum, you probably will get a lot better answers if you post there.

I have experienced issues with Fusion 360 while attempting to record my actions with Screencast.

Have posted it "across the road" on the screencast support forum

I am not sure if my screencast has done an update recently - but I do know that F360 has done a few since my last screencast (15th April this year) and it worked as per normal then - no issues as far as I could tell whilst making it
So I guess it is something that has changed since then that has caused issues for me
