Abstract

Systems and methods for recording a GUI element (e.g., a window) on a user device through a single drag-to-record action are disclosed. The method includes rendering a drag-to-record element on a display of the user device and further receiving and storing one or more parameters of the GUI element, where the threshold edges of the GUI element are determined based on the one or more parameters of the GUI element. The method further includes receiving a drop position of the drag-to-record element that is above the GUI element, thus bounded by one or more threshold edges of the GUI element. The method further includes identifying the GUI element as a recording target based on the drop position of the drag-to-record element, and starting the recording of the GUI element.
