Process records and work archives

Keep activity records by work: active drawing time, strokes and sittings. Record images and export timelapse video only when you need them.

Start a session

  1. Open Toolbox → Process Recording.
  2. Create a work or continue an unfinished one.
  3. Enable the available application-window and/or canvas recording options if needed. With both off, only drawing activity is recorded.
  4. Start recording, then stop when this sitting ends.

When automatic reminders are enabled, Nephele can ask whether to begin after detecting drawing activity, or whether to change works when the file changes. Confirm the prompt. Video recording is not required just to collect activity statistics.

Continue a work over several sittings

Works and sittings are separate. Stop today and return to the same work later to keep its sessions together. Check the selected work before starting so different commissions are not mixed.

Optionally record images

For timelapse video, choose an application window, screen region or a canvas source supported by the current host. Integration differs by drawing app; use the sources and connection guidance actually shown in the recorder.

A screen recording can include content outside the canvas. Check its source and region first, or disable video when you only want activity records.

Review and export

Use the work archive to review sessions, generate a record card, and export available timelapse video or process archives. Data Center summarizes monthly and lifetime drawing activity.

Record cards are useful for sharing statistics. Keep the corresponding archives when you need the underlying process material. Integrity checks detect changes to records; they do not independently settle what the work depicts or who owns it.

Missing capture sources or video components

Check that the drawing app is running with a work open and that the selected source is supported. If a video component is missing, use the repair action provided by the recorder before retrying. Recorded activity alone should not be mistaken for a successfully captured video.

For application-time comparisons, use the separate Software Usage tracker.
