Web based support - LCS V5.5.0.0

Overview

This version of Live Content Studio (LCS) allows for the capture of controls in web and Chromium based applications such as Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome and Microsoft Teams.  Previous versions of LCS could either not capture at all or would be intermittent in web and Chromium based applications.

This document outlines what to expect from the new version.

<%EXTOGGLE%>Capturing controls

If you’re capturing in a web or Chromium based application, your entire screen will appear locked until LCS has initialized itself, see screenshot below. It should only do this once for each application while LCS is open.

Capturing controls and scaling

If the monitor is scaled above 100%, LCS will identify this and you will be informed that certain programs need to be restarted for capturing to work correctly. See screenshot below.

restart

 

Balloon-tips

Balloon-tips can be added as normal to your Content for web-based applications.
<%EXTOGGLE%>Launching and previewing content

If a Chromium based program is initializing while launching or previewing content, an extra message will appear via the normal ‘Initializing’ popup. See screenshot above. This will add a few seconds to the startup of the Launched Content.

Cross-browser support

If you have captured the steps in one browser (e.g. Chrome) your Content should also work if running in Internet Explorer or Edge.

Launching & previewing when scaled

If the monitor is scaled above 100%, LCS will identify this and the user will be informed via the Launching Specific Scaled Applications popup that certain programs need to be restarted for content to work correctly. See screenshot above.
