Seeing mouse movements during playback

Post by fshoukin » Tue Dec 16, 2008 4:37 am

Hi

Is it possible for Imacro to allow me to see the mouse movement during the playback of a macro? Currently, what I observed is that green or red boxes will appear on places where the mouse clicks were made. However, I wonder if it is possible to see the actual movement of the mouse as well during playback. This will help me monitor exactly where i move or click the mouse buttons.

Thanks

1. For html pages, there is no mouse cursor movment. iMacros directly works with the HTML elements. The elements it "touches" are surrounded by the blue box.

2. For DirectScreen commands you should see a little pink circle:
