To access

Select Record > Record and Run Settings and then select the Flex tab.

Important information

If you load only the UFT One Flex Add-in, then only the Flex and Windows Applications tabs are displayed in the Record and Run Settings dialog box. If other add-ins are loaded, the corresponding tabs (if any) are also displayed.
