I noticed that to just now, which makes it hard to make tutorials when the mouse pointer never is where you click.
In this image i actually click in the checkbox, but the pointer is much higher.

Cursor positions are global screen points normalized against a frame reported separately from the pixels ScreenCaptureKit writes.
The capture helper now reports the filter content rect as the capture frame on macOS 14 and later, and keeps the source frame only on macOS 13.
