    Default Re: Next version of Xara Extreme

    Hello to all,

    when it comes to writing macros for an application that doesn't have an macro language build in, I think you should take a look at AutoIt (http://www.autoitscript.com/) It's a freeware tool that has a BASIC-like scripting language where you can write you scripts. For example

    MouseClickDrag("left", 0, 200, 600, 700)

    This command presses the left mouse button on position 0/200 an dragging the mouse to position 600/700 an releses the left mouse button.

    I never used it together with Xara but maxbe you should give it a try

    Well thanks for your suggestion Mathias, but my whole point about wanting an actions/macro recorder is so that I can spend more time doing the things I want to do.

    I'm sure there are those who will appreciate this scripting tool, but, personally speaking, I don't have the time or inclination to learn about writing scripts.

    I'm a lazy bugger who just wants to draw and paint, LOL!

    Thanks, my thoughts exactly. You said it for me.
    If someone tried to make me dig my own grave I would say No.
    They're going to kill me anyway and I'd love to die the way I lived:
    Avoiding Manual Labour.
