Frequently Asked Questions

• Macros involving mouse actions depend on everything within a window holding the same position. Try redefining the macro and using primarily keyboard shortcuts rather than mouse actions, as keys are position independent.
• Maybe the macro is playing back faster than the target application can handle. Try reducing the playback speed and/or disabling the "skip redundant mouse movement" option
• Is the macro starting playback before the window is ready? Try a small initial delay.
• Also, don't forget that commands such as Paste depend on the current contents of the clipboard. Has the context for successful playback of the macro changed?

Please read the section "Recording and playback of macros" -> "Tips for Macros" in the PTFB Pro help for more information.
