MoveWindow> and ResizeWindow>

Post by lebrocoli » Wed Oct 10, 2007 5:39 pm

Hi!

When I use the recorder, eventhough the script created works fine, it contains many lines with MoveWindow> and ResizeWindow> instructions.


I am just curious to know why they appear since I do not move or resize any window at all.

Could it be because I am remotely connected to test machine running MacroScheduler ?

Thanks

To ensure the script always runs correctly the windows are resized and moved into the same place and position that they were in when you recorded it. If the window size/position has not changed these commands won't appear to do anything. But they ensure the window placement is identical to when recorded.
