[Bug 1434434] Re: [request] want a workflow recording tool with support for runtime adjustments to the workflow

Hi Eugene!

I agree with all points that you mentioned, but let me share why I found the script writer extremely useful. By now, I'm using it simply to take pictures. It has significantly reduced my time to capture the required images. The panel is always on top of my screen and when I need to take some screenshots I just press Record button and start cutting. When I press Stop I get all my clicks written in script and all my images stored in the particular place. Then I copy the commands to my main script and continue coding.
I save time by not using a snipping tool (especially for linux there is no such handy tool like for windows), not think about the images names, not choosing the directory to save the images and not writing the click commands.

Title:
  [request] want a workflow recording tool with support for runtime
  adjustments to the workflow

Status in Sikuli:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Hi guys!

  @RaiMan, could you kindly advise me if you have done a script
  recording tool? If you haven't, would you be interested in my one? It
  some kind of floating panel with two buttons Record and Stop, that can
  capture pictures and write your typing. Output is simply set of
  commands, for example:

  s.click("c:\\tmp\\myimgs\\PREF_20150320130001.PNG");
  s.type("H");
  s.type("e");
  s.type("l");
  s.type("l");
  s.type("o");
  s.type(" ");
  s.type("g");
  s.type("u");
  s.type("y");
  s.type("s");
  s.type("!");
  s.type(Key.ENTER);

  You can copy them and past to your code. Probably, I or someone else
  could develop a plugin for eclipse in the future that will input the
  commands directly to your code. By now, it will be an AWT application.
  The main advantage of the tool is to reduce necessity to make pictures
  manually and link them to the commands, the tool does it for you.

  I could also make an youtube video. So, let me know if you need so.

  Thanks!
