1. Click Recorder – Show Recorder. This opens the Recorder tool.
2. Click to start recording.
3. Type a name for the recording.
4. Click to end and save the recording to a desired location.
NOTE
Because the file length is unknown during a recording, the Progress Bar
cannot accurately indicate the position in the file. In this case, when the
progress bar gets to the end, it moves back to the halfway position, and
then continues moving to show progress of the recording. This is
repeated until the recording is stopped.
