"Select a window" functionality with Firefox

Jul 25, 2012

My team uses Storyline to create simulations for a web application. Unfortunately we are required to use only Firefox while recording the simulations. 

When using the handy "Select a window" function to record Firefox, it only acknowledges one selection, which is the entire browser window, including the toolbars, menu, and browser frame. (see image below)

Mozilla Firefox: 

Chrome and IE, on the other hand, allow us to select either the entire window OR only the viewport (inside window) of the browser.

Google Chrome:

For now, we are manually sizing the recording frame to capture only the inner window, but if there is a way to use the "Select a window" option to accomplish that with Firefox, it would greatly improve the efficiency of our process. I realize it may simply be a difference in how the browsers are built or how Storyline recognizes a "window". But any suggestions or input would be great! Thanks.
