Editing Text Capture Templates > Caption Pre-Editing > RDL Editing Confidence Check

6. Edit the rdl file.

 scroll down to the part of the document shown below (if you have trouble

finding the text, use the Find feature available in both Notepad and

TextEdit to find Object Name=”Menu”)

This is the part of the document that controls the words “Select” and “menu

item.” If you edit the text in this part of the template, the automatic text

captions created during the recording process allow you to skip much of the

editing process during the post-production phase. For instance, if you want

the word Choose to appear in the text captions instead of Select, you’d

change only the word Select to Choose. And if you want each of the text

captions to end with a period, all you need to do is add a period just to the left

of the closing quote.

 at the end of the Object Name=”Menu” line, click between the u in

menu and the closing quote

 type a period

7. Save your work. (Keep the file open.)

RDL Editing Confidence Check

1. In the image below, I’ve added periods to the end of

several lines of text. Spend a few moments adding periods

on your own.

2. As an experiment, change the words Select the %s menu item to

Choose the %s command. (During the recording process, let’s see if this

has any effect on the text that appears in your text captions.)
