Hi,
Whipping mouse across the screen sometimes causes large toolbar to pop open. It would be great to filter out these inadvertent expansions with a variable delay.
Is there a filter function for this already?
I find the biggest challenge in designing macros for multiple users is to avoid the "ghost in the machine" aspect of multi-step automation. People don't like the computer steps "running away from them". It's best to have automation but with a little intentional step i.e. discrete triggers for any particular step. Variable delays on mouse triggers (stacked with mouse-chording and click-delay) functions have been very helpful in this regard.
Thanks,
Stuart
