Generating an Application Document — Step 3

This topic guides you through the Capture step of the Application Document Wizard for an Application Document template.

Review best practices for optimal results.

Capture Screenshots

Use the options in this section to build a catalog of images capturing each of your application's UI components.

Start by selecting a skin in the Preview Style field. The value you select applies style and formatting to your application so you can preview different options in your screenshots without physically changing the application's skin.

Click Capture All to build the initial Screenshot Catalog table. Wait for the progress bar to complete and then review results for each image in the Status column of the table.

Click the Detect Updates button in subsequent iterations of the wizard to find and review rules that need new or updated screenshots. You can ignore the results or click Capture Updates to update the image catalog.

In order for the Application Document Wizard to identify a flow action screen to capture, the shape referencing that flow action (for example, a connector) needs to be linked to a specification in the flow.

 

Screenshot Catalog

Use the table in this section to review and override your application screenshots. Each row represents an image of a rule such as a harness or flow action.

Use the column headers to sort and filter results. Interact with each column to customize the results:

Column

The name of the Image Content data instance containing the screenshot. Click to open the rule.
