What needs to be done prior to recording the simulation?

Create a learning Module (or select an already created one) to insert the simulation into. Select (or create a new) Slide for placing the simulation. The Editor allocates each simulation session into a single Slide and automatically adds necessary frames; there is no need to add frames manually. Define the size of the free space on the Frame within the Slide where the simulation will be fitted - this is the requirement for setting up simulation recording.

IMPORTANT! CourseLab does not support auto scaling for captured screens. Screen captures will be performed only within user defined area in scale of 1:1. Therefore, make sure that defined size of the captured screen enables recording all required information from the target software. If of size insufficiency, you might need to change template of the current Slide to increase size of recording area.

Specify a graphic format for storing screen captures. To do that open application menu and select Settings option. In classic menu select Service → Settings. On the "Screen Capture" tab specify the desired file format. As long as you do not have any specific restrictions, we recommend using PNG format for screen capturing, since this format performs best in terms of quality and size of the saved files.

Even though you can correct results later on, you should determine the screen capturing scenario beforehand, in order to avoid mistakes.
