What is a yellow frame around The Sims 4 screen mean?

I am currently in build mode,  while I was trying to type "shelves" into the search bar, I must have somehow hit a button combination that triggered a yellow boarder around my screen...I am not sure ...

@Wholesome_Goth , Probably! 😂
Well, if it ever happens again in Build & Buy Mode, just hit "V" on your keyboard and it should stop it! 😉

@PugLove888 Hopefully the next time I am typing in the search box for an item in B/B, I'll actually be typing in the searchbox and the accidental recording won't happen again. 😂

I have never been able to actually watch any of the Sims 4 recordings...

    @Wholesome_Goth , I've never watched my recordings either, since I usually just want photos anyway.🙃  But I'm sure someone here knows how to find and watch them! 😉

      @PugLove888 Sims 3 I don't think I ever had an issue with playing the rare video I recorded just to see what happens when I stepped away unpaused. But for some reason Sims 4 always gives me an error message when I open the video. 🤷🏼‍♀️

        @Wholesome_Goth , you might want to ask in another post for help on how to play your recorded videos. 😊  Just be sure to mention if you are using a PC or a Mac! 😉
