Keep in mind that you can use the Macro Recorder to record the backbone of your script. The Macro Recorder is really just a way to input Actions in an easier interface than writing them all out would be. If you use the Recorder with a Process that already has Actions, it will add the steps above the highlighted Action or at the bottom if you don't have any highlighted. When you finish recording, WinAutomation then converts this to a set of Actions for your Process. Launch the Macro Recorder and it will record everything you do. When you open the Macro Recorder, it records your activities and creates a set of Actions out of it, as a Process. In addition to building a Process by combining and configuring Actions, you can also use WinAutomation to simulate a user's activities by controlling the mouse and the keyboard. This is where the AutoLogin feature comes in handy. Remember - since you are creating an Interactive Process, WinAutomation cannot simulate a user (and run the Process) when no users are logged on. You can create this simulation by choosing Mouse, Keyboard and UI Automation Actions or by using the Macro Recorder - which will automatically generate an appropriate set of Actions that mimic your own, recorded activity.

Through mouse, keyboard and UI automation Actions, WinAutomation can simulate a user's actions. Simulating the activity of a userĪ user inputs his/her commands and data through the mouse and keyboard. Coordinate based actions will move the mouse to the specific, absolute recorded locations inside the active window. The actions produced by Smart recording will click on elements such as windows, buttons and menu items based on UI selectors rather than absolute locations. Macro Recorder can record in two modes: Smart and Coordinate-based. In addition to building a Process by combining and configuring Actions, Macro Recorder can be used to record the User’s activities and create a set of Actions out of it. This section demonstrates how to simulate a user’s activities by controlling the mouse and keyboard.
