ActivePresenter is software that can easily capture your screen/desktop and automatically generate help documentation text. While recording the presentation, each mouse click will take the text from the Windows element (menu item, list box, etc.) and save it to a dialog element. These text elements will be used when exporting to a document format (e.g. Adobe PDF).
