Continuous Mouse Control

Post by gecko25 »

I am trying to use the Start mouse movement in direction feature to navigate my mouse to a button on the screen. When I press and hold the button on my remote once, it sends a IR command to the receiver which I can use to make the macro. Perfect. However, when I hold and press the button my remote it sends a series of IR commands, each one different then the next.

Has anyone experienced this before? How can I get my mouse to move continuously if the IR signal changes each time? Is there a way to capture several IR commands (notice how all of them start with Unknown.10044...)

As an alternative you could use the find window action, and drag the target to specify the button, then 'bring to front', before sending a click or hotkey combination.

You can use a python command like below to specify the characters you're interested in every time a trigger of USB_UIRT.Unknown, is received. Just change the range from 12:19 to the appropriate values to capture the 'Unknown.10044', and use that as your mouse trigger.
