Use this page to configure the following defaults for recorded content:
Automatically record keyboard shortcuts: While you are recording content, the Developer can automatically capture keyboard shortcuts for menu items in standard Windows menus. The Developer determines the shortcut using underlined letters in the menu name. When you record keyboard shortcuts, it is the same as recording an Alternative Action. In the Player, the keyboard shortcut appears as the Alternative Action for the current step in Try It! mode. In the Player, users are marked correct if they use the keyboard shortcut for a step in Know It? mode. Deselect this option if you do not want to capture the shortcuts in recorded content.
Enable automatic recording: If enabled, the Developer can create "incremental" screenshots automatically as you drag the mouse. This process is called automatic drag and drop recording. If you do not want the Developer to automatically capture the "incremental" screenshots, deselect this option. When automatic drag and drop recording is disabled, you need to press PRINTSCREEN (or the designated screen capture key) to capture the "incremental" screenshots as you drag.
Distance between screenshots in pixels: The Distance between screenshots option allows you to specify how far the mouse must move before another screenshot is captured.
Action area size in pixels: The Action area size option allows you to control the size of the action area for each frame captured during the drag action. The area size is also the default size used for an action area that the Recorder recognizes as a Universal Object, Workspace, Window, or Active X object.
