To record new slides:
1.
Open the Adobe Captivate project in which you want to record and insert new slides.
2.
From the Insert menu, select Record Additional Slides.

Decide where the new slides should be added. You can add new slides to the end of the project,
or click a slide in the list and add new slides after the selected slide.
4.
When you finish, click OK.
The recording window appears.
5.
Select options as necessary. For example, if you want to record an application that is open, click
the pop-up menu next to Optionally, select a window you'd like to record and choose the
application. You can also click Options and set numerous recording options.
Note: You can position the capture area anywhere on your screen. You cannot, however, resize
the capture area because it is set to the same size as the project to which you are adding the slides.
6.
When you are finished selecting options, click Record.

When you are finished recording, press End (or other key combination you have designated) on

The newly recorded slides are inserted into your project in the specified location.
Note: You can also import slides from other Adobe Captivate projects or PowerPoint files.
