Have a screencast you'd like to share with the Community? Here's a quick guide to creating a Community Tip or Tutorial that includes a video clip.

 

1. Start in the Community Tips and Tutorials section, click the Contribute Your Tips & Tutorials graphic.

 

 

2. Enter any text you'd like to include in the Title and Body.

 

3. In the Body, place your cursor where you want the video to appear. Then in the toolbar, click the Insert Media button (to the left of the happy face).

 

4. Click the Browse button.

 

5. Click the Videos tab.

 

 

6. Select the name of the category, then the video you've already uploaded.

 

7. Enter a width of 640 and height of 500 (or 380 for 16x9) under the Option tab. The extra 20 pixels is an adjustment for the height of the playback controller.

 

 

8. Click the OK button (lower right-hand corner, you may need to scroll down a bit)

 

9. You'll see a bracketed line of code in the Body. This indicates where your video will be displayed.

 

10. Finally, click the Submit button.

 

All done!
