Hey guys ! So I have been seeing this keystroke caster being used in Mac in a bunch of tutorials which shows the strokes for both keyboard and mouse. Any idea which caster is this?

Are you clicking anything after S? You can try something like https://github.com/nutti/Screencast-Keys to verify. When you press S you should be in scale mode, then Z while in scale mode sets the scale axis to Z. If you exit scale mode before pressing Z, the behavior is what you're describing with the radial menu.
When I tried to enable the screencast keys add-on, this message came up when I pressed the tick box. Can anyone tell me how to fix this please? Thanks
