There recently has been a lot of nice things told about the capability of the HotSpot script. So, I decided to download, and give it a try.
I am running the SpamFighter software, which ties in with Outlok Express, placing a menu bar at top of the OE screen. The only way for me to access this menu (or toolbar), is by use of the mouse. So I found, this would be the perfect chance of testing the HotSpot script. Here is what I did: First, I placed the mouse on the actual choice on the SpamFighter toolbar, by using the mousekeys in WE. Normally, now I would have pressed the LeftMouse to open the scroll down submenu, and from there used the up/down-arrows. Next, I pressed the HotSpot hotkey of Ctrl-Alt-P, and the HotSpot definition dialog opened. I filled in the different fields, Named it SpamFighter, gave it the hotkey of Ctrl-S, associated it with Outlook Express, and had it choose Current position, which I took, would be the position of the mouse when entering the HotSpot definition. Also, when asked for an action, I did tell it to press a key, and when requested, I pressed the Numpad-Slash (that is, the LeftMouse key, that I usually would have pressed). (My system has no physical mouse, since I never bothered, being only me who use the computer anyway.) Then I saved the whole thing, and was ready to try it out. Well, Now, when in Outlook Express, pressing Ctrl-S - the hotkey I set in HotSpot - all WE does, is to ding on me, and the speech says 'DASH'. What am I doing wrong?
