What Happens During Guided Re-Record?
Guided Re-Record is a simple, flexible way to create translated content for a wide range of applications. Guided Re-Record can be used on any .udc file.
During the guided Re-Record process, the application displays an on-screen script that you can follow while recording a new document in a different language. Guided Re-Recording displays a list of screens and steps from a previously recorded document, and prompts you with the steps to take to record the same steps again in the target application.
Guided Re-Record screen prompts display as:
- A new pane in the recorder toolbar that displays the list of steps in the original file
- An action hotspot directly on the application screen that indicates where the next action should occur
- An action note that displays the action text for the step
