{{intro|Page where James sketches out the lists of images we would like to autogenerate.  A key point is to create families of images, as that is where automation benefits most}}

* Images so far [[User:JamesCrook/ImageWishlist|Images in Manual]]
* Progress at: [http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Automation_Project_Progress Automation Project Progress]
* The project itself: [http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Automation_Project Automation Project]

__NOTOC__
==Already Have==

{{note|We already have:
* Ability to extract a complete list of all menu items and their states, and generate hyperlinked images of the menus

* Ability to capture all pages of the preferences dialog.
* Ability to upload images and update pages in bulk.}}

==Want==

===Toolbars===

{{advice|We will require
* Ability to show cursor on an image.  
* Ability to draw white area around, diagonal arrows and blue text on images.
* Ability to put borders around sub regions in image maps.
* Ability to add drop shadows to dialogs.
}}

* Annotated image-map images like this one, but now for all toolbars (11 images) plus images of both docks (2 images):

* And here's a second attempt at an annotated EditToolbar.  Using a smaller font and wider arrow lines. The image needs a larger canvas so that the hyperlink text boxes can have some border relative to the text.

===Waves===

* All wave anatomy diagrams, like this one but using the same styling as the toolbars (estimated 35 images)
** Styling is same bold blue text, diagonal arrows and more space around the image as the toolbars
** Now to include image map links too.
:<span title="Stereo track with Track Control Panel, vertical scale and left channel above right channel">[[Image:Stereo Track annotated with TDDM.png|600px|link=]]</span>

* All '''generators''', a screenshot of the wave after generation.
* Selected '''effects''', e.g. [[Echo]], [[Truncate Silence]], showing how the waveform has changed.
* Images for '''[[Audacity Tracks and Clips]]''' showing how clips are moved around.

:<span title="Two mono tracks with multiple clips in each track">[[Image:TimeShiftStereo03.png|link=]]</span>

Note that the clip rearrangement is closer to a script for a video, with ability to take screenshots of key steps.

* Images for '''[[Envelope Tool]]''' showing how to work with envelopes.

:<span title="Zooming out vertically, you can see more of the envelope">[[Image:Envelope6.png|link=]]</span>

Note that the envelope manipulation is closer to a script for a video, with ability to take screenshots of key steps.
