Abstract
Examples of systems and methods for documenting an interactive graphical design address the need to document interactive graphical designs automatically and efficiently without requiring substantial manual time and effort. These examples are operable to automatically generate documentation based on data collected from an interaction session of a user with the interactive graphical design without any additional user input. The documentation is populated automatically with descriptive text and images of the interactive graphical design. Some examples also provide tools for editing the documentation. Examples of these tools include tools for removing portions of the documentation on the basis of events that occurred during the interaction session, and tools for customizing the content and appearance of the documentation. In addition, some examples are operable to update the documentation automatically to reflect modifications to the interactive graphical design.
