You can change the inclusion of screenshots when a topic is published in one of the document formats. Note that screenshots do not appear in the Test Case format. The Auto Select Screenshot to Print automatically option includes screenshots based on changes in the context settings as determined by the Developer during the publishing process. This is the default setting. The Include Screenshot in Print and Do not Include Screenshot in Print options offer manual control over which screenshots appear in the printed document. 


These options are available on all frames except the Introduction frame, which takes its screenshot from the first frame. If you include Decision or End frames, the color graphic, rather than the grayscale graphic that appears during topic playback, appears in the document.


Note: Changing this option only has an effect if the Include field on the Documents page of the Options dialog box is set to Topic Settings and the Include field on the Formats page of the Publishing Wizard is also set to Topic Settings. If they are set to any other option, changing the screenshot inclusion method at the frame level has no effect.


The icons in the toolbar indicate whether the screenshot for the current frame will be included when the topic is included in the document format.

 


The screenshot for the current frame will be included automatically.

 


The screenshot for the current frame will NOT be included automatically.
