Of course there is no mention of every single command that can be recorded, but this text applies to Jack's observations: > Selections are recorded only if they are done by using the keyboard (cursor > traveling), but not when the mouse is used. Jack said: I then moved the cursor one step to the right, using the arrow key. (That part of the macro works fine) > Actions that are not related to the document contents are not recorded This applies to the general bug description by Jack: you can record the execution of a command that opens a modal dialog or a non-modal dialog [vid. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modal_window for the difference between them] (like the "Goal Seek" dialog), but what you do in that dialog is not recorded. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the issue.
