An animation occurs during recording, replaying and pausing.
The current action (record, play or pause) and path of the involved file are displayed in the
Object Info bar of the window.
Recorder Operations
When there is no record or play session (e.g., when the window is open), only the record
and play buttons are enabled.
When you click the record button, the debugger prompts you to enter a file name. Then a
record session starts and the stop button is enabled. Click the stop button to end the record
session.
Clicking the replay button prompts for a file name. Command files have a .rec default
extension and can be edited. A replay session starts and only the stop and pause buttons
are enabled. When the pause button is clicked, file execution stops and the play and stop
buttons are enabled. When the play button is clicked, file execution continues from the
point it has been stopped. When the stop button is clicked, the replay session stops.
Terminal and TestTerm Record
Data typed in the Terminal component and TestTerm component is recorded during a
record session. The resulting file can be replayed only if the time is also recorded (Record
Time menu entry of the recorder has to be checked before recording).
Recorder Menu
The Recorder menu shown in Figure 3.55 changes according to the current session. The
menu items are described in Table 3.29 .
