When you select Create a new topic or Record a test on the Welcome to Record It! page of the Record It! wizard, the Name Your Topic page opens. This page allows you to the name the topic or test you are creating.

 

Before you record content, you can set your recording and document options in one of two ways:

 

Import Content Defaults - Allows you to import a pre-defined set of options from an .ops file.


Set Options - Allows you to set the screen capture mode, screen capture key and how sound is recorded on a topic.  You can also set Test Results options for printed output.

 

Note: After the options have been saved, you return to the Record It! wizard regardless of what is set in the Open the Topic Editor option.

 

You can document the recording process by adding notes to your topic or test.

 

Note: If you cancel out of the wizard at any time after you record content, the content is stored in your cache. You can retrieve the content by choosing Edit an existing topic on the Welcome to Record It! page and selecting the topic on the Select Topic or Test to Edit page.
