Hi Sean.
hmmm, well I have just done a mammeth post on ITunes registration stuff,
, so I'm kinda wared out a bit with that. <grin.>
But, only two probly lame Ideas I had were,
1. maybe try using the function, PriorCharacter() instead of the >
PerformScript SayPriorCharacter()
line?
2. install and connect hsc in it's simplest mode, with the line
Use "HotSpotClicker.jsb"
at the top of your application, and hopefully not having to mess with
KeyPressedEvent issues.
then, if you can bear wading through it's helper documentation, which is
extensive, yet pretty thorough, you will see that it has a couple of modes
which could help here.
one, is a tracking pc or virtual pc cursor mode, whereby you could set up
things such that for example you'd assign a given spot, on, say, one of the
graphics you need to double Click on.
go through the control+alt+shift+A wizard etc.
but in the very first question where it asks for positioning mode, maybe try
choosing first,
PcCursor row and Column.
I gotta say that I do get a bit confused with these three choices, as to
which one to choose for which type of tracking. I should be able to work it
out easily, but, I can't always. so try that first.
as you go through the wizard, as instructed, which is not always easy to
know, try and remove any dynamic information from any of the windowNames
presented, that you fear, might not, be always present as you operate your
application. Leave in just enough info at each window type stage, that your
confident will remain static, as confident as you can be I mean.
for CurrentWidnow name, I always pretty much delete the lot, since they can
change just so much, it's safer not to leave anything there.
for the action question, until your sure it's tracking properly as you
navigate your tree view when you hit the spot's hotkey, just choose no
action, by typing N O quickly etc. that way, you can test it's positioning,
before clicking randomly and bringing unintentioned consequences.
assign a hotspot label, which you will probably choose to not have spoken
when it asks, and assign a hotkey for the spot.
now, when your done, navigate your tree view, and then hit your hotspot key
at each point, then maybe do your two manual double clicks with numpad
slash, to see if it's tracking the way you want.
if you hit Control+Alt+Shift+H, when in an app to which hsc has been
properly connected, you'll see a bunch of help stuff, including a link to
open the main hotSpotClicker documentation in your browser.
hit jawsKey+f6 when in here, and type P C quickly, to jump to the heading,
Pc or Virtual cursor relative positioning
hgh.
