> How to record saving an image from a site

  With eValid's exceptional recording capabilities, nearly any
  task done through eValid shrinks a user workload dramatically!
  Saving backup images from a site by saving it locally can reduce
  the workload for a user by automating such task. And, when used
  in conjunction with the eV.generate feature, one can create a
  script which periodically downloads and saves it under a new
  filename everytime -- automatically!

  (1) Start your recording normally.

  (2) Navigate to the page where the image is located.

  (3) In the Advanced Preferences (eValid > Settings > Record/Play
      Preferences > Advanced) click the Absolute Right Clicks radio
      button to enable the recording of the right mouse button.

  (4) Turn on "Application Mode" Recording in order to record the
      interaction of saving the image in a local directory.

  (5) Right-click on the image and select "Save Picture As..."

  (6) Set the time on when you want your scripts to be run by
      adding commands such as "Wait, WaitHH/MM, WaitModHH/MM".

  (7) Playback your script.

  As you will observe, eValid waits for the time specified and
  runs the script, saving the image to the local folder specified.
