You can insert frames in an existing topic. When you insert a single frame, you are recording a single action; therefore you must take two screenshots, so that the Recorder can capture the screenshot and the action you perform. When you insert multiple frames, the recording process is identical to recording a topic; the Recorder captures the starting screenshot and the successive actions and resulting screenshots for new frames. 


You insert a new frame after the current frame. You should make sure that you know where in the topic you want to place the frame. You should also be sure that the screen in the application you are recording is set up to match the correct step in the task where you want to insert the frame.


ProcedureTo insert a missing frame or frames after the current frame:

  1. Open or switch to the application in which you want to record the missing step(s), and set it up in the correct position to begin the step(s).
     
  2. Switch back to the Developer.
     
  3. On the Insert Insert menu, choose Insert Missing Frames Missing Frames.
     
  4. Press PRINTSCREEN to record the screenshot.
     
  5. Perform the action you want to record.
     
  6. Press PRINTSCREEN to capture the results of the step.
     
    Repeat as necessary.
     
  7. Click Finish.
     
  8. Verify and edit the settings and the bubble text as necessary.
