Confessions of a Frustrated Macro User

I'm using more macros in T4 than I did in T3. All the macros are from these donations. However, some of them do not run correctly on the first go. I found out that my monitor is (evidently) not exactly the same dimensions as noted in the macros. And while my hardware may say 1680 x 1050 it's not like the precisely one listed in the macro info text. So with the suggestions from Hikahi that I check the location/positions needed for the CC Macro from Galagah's contribution.

So, here's some tips if you are a macro "no-know-how".

  • Get the AutoIt program. This has a handly screen position reader called AutoIt v3 Window Info. This tool will stay on top of the screen you are trying to measure and you can use CTRL+ALT+F to "freeze" the position you are measuring, so you can write it down.
  • You want to measure the CLIENT window, not the screen.
