How to send mouse commands?

I am glad I found a beginners area because I suspect I am doing something stupid.  I am on my second day with
powerpro and love the functionality I have found.  I have learned how to configure bars and menus and work
with virtual desktops.  But I am trying to create a button that sends mouse commands and have been stuck for
over 6 hours.

In the help file I saw the restriction for using mouse command with Vista, which I am on and believe I observed
the constraint.

When the button in a menu is pressed I want to move the mouse to an particular x,y location and have it left
click.  I followed the following steps to implement it.

In the Config dialog and Command Lists tab, I create a new item.
I entered a Name and place the following commands in the bottom list box.
win.mouse("ab 306 474")
win.mouse("lc")
win.mouse("lc")

I do not think I need the second left click but added just to be sure.

When I execute this item, the window gets selected but the button action does not occur.  Does anyone see what
I am doing wrong?

Thanks
Leland

You are trying to use win.mouse with Vista. You need to use win.sendmouse
instead. This is covered in Help. See "Help -> Index -> windows vista".
win.sendmouse("ab 306 474")
win.sendmouse("lc")

Re: How to send mouse commands?

Saving and restoring the mouse

Wow, got a quick answer for my last question and decided to ask this one before I invested six hours trying to
solve.  

I am using Vista and trying to do a simple thing.

I want to save the mouse position, push a button, and restore the mouse.  Tried

win.sendmouse("sa")
win.sendmouse("ab 174 56") 
win.sendmouse("lc")
win.sendmouse("restore")

Get an error message at "store".  I suspect it has to do with not having a short command for restore.  How can I
solve this?  Any suggestions on how I could solve this on my own would be appreciated.

Thanks 
Leland

You are correct, win.sendmessage only accepts two letter forms and in case of "restore" it is "rs" which can
be found in:"win plugin > system actions > sendmouse"

 
> How can I solve this?  Any suggestions on how I could solve this on my own would be appreciated.

You can make it all in one string:

win.sendmouse("sa ab", "mo 174 56", "lc rs")

System RAM Meter

Hello y'all!  I just tried the bigmem.  I have been using Samuri to 
display a running meter of used RAM and CPU in a sort of progress bar.  
It is cute and trim; but I would like to do this with PP instead.  
bigmem seems only to output one static value, but I need a running 
meter.  What do I do?

Suggestions on design of a script.

Been working with PowerPro for a week and amazed by functionality and have a long list of scripts I need to
develop.  I have done a bunch of sample ones and thanks to quanticworks, I have a great set of reference
documents and tutorials.

Because of my limited knowledge of ppro, I would like to see if I can describe the problem I am trying to solve
and if someone would suggested a which parts of ppro I should use.  Basically a rough design.  Sort of
suggestions like - "Use blah to build a blah of windows and then do blah"  I am not asking someone to create it
for me, just give me pointers to the right functionality to use.

Problem:
I am a daytrader trading 5 different contracts.  I have four screens with around 60 windows of different
charts.  It updates second by second.  5 of those windows are order entry window that I need to press a center
button on.  I can write a grep definition of the 5 window captions and I know how to press the button, given a
windowId.  I need a script that identifies all 5 windows and presses the button on all 5.  Performance is an
issue because in fast markets I will run the script every 20 seconds, so it seems like it might be worth
caching the windowIds.

I am an experienced programmer and scripter but new to powerpro.  I absolutely am amazed by the capability of
powerpro and feel like my mind will explode when I think of all the awesome scripts I will write to help my trading.

Thanks,
Leland

I don't expect performance to be an issue so I would start simple. Windows
are identified by what PowerPro calls a caption list. This can be a regular
expression to match the window caption. Most buttons can be activated by a
keystroke. This is more reliable than using the mouse. You could then just
use 5 key commands with possibly a wait after each command to let widows
catch up.
