Selecting the Callout Style for Recording

When you record a movie, bubble callouts can be automatically added to frames when you perform actions (see Adding Callouts Automatically). Unless you specify otherwise, the default callout style is used.

Before you begin recording a movie, you can select the style to be used for the automatic callouts. You can select a factory style or you can select a style from any of your palettes.
