Some Mouse Actions Not Recorded with Capture Next Actions (153410)

CAUSE

The Capture Next Actions feature is used to create voice commands by detecting all the keyboard and mouse actions that occur when you are creating the voice command. However, when you use the Capture Next Actions feature to create a voice command, certain mouse actions are not recorded properly. This may result in the voice command not working as you expect. Some of the mouse actions that are not recorded include:

• Drag-and-drop actions (only the positions of the mouse when the mouse button is pressed and lifted are recorded).
• Scroll bar actions (no mouse action is recorded).
• Title bar actions (neither double-clicking the title bar to maximize a program nor moving a window by dragging the title bar is recorded).
• Desktop actions (clicking an object with the left or right mouse button is not recorded).

For example, if you use the mouse to drag a file from Windows Explorer to WordPad, these actions are recorded by Microsoft Voice as "Press left mouse button at <cursor location>" and "Lift mouse button at <cursor location>" but no information about the object you moved is recorded. When you run the voice command, no object is moved even though the mouse movement and button actions are executed.
