Move the mouse with coordinates not working

Ui.Vision General Discussion

Hi all,

I’m trying in (Windows 10 with Chrome) to move the mouse over the site with coordinates to make it fast and precise but the mouse is not going where I tell it. Why is this happening? how to fix it?

In this video you can see the coordinates for “HTML” and “Javascript” labels. When mouse is over those labels should change to green background. Finally I want to move the mouse over “Search your favorite tutorials …” box and write something as in this video.

But when I set the XMove commands with the recorded coordinates, the mouse is going not exactly to desired places. What I’m missing?

This is the test macro:

{
  "Name": "test",
  "CreationDate": "2024-10-31",
  "Commands": [
    {
      "Command": "open",
      "Target": "https://www.tutorialspoint.com/index.htm",
      "Value": "",
      "Description": ""
    },
    {
      "Command": "XMove",
      "Target": "210,134",
      "Value": "#move",
      "Description": "Move to HTML menu"
    },
    {
      "Command": "XMove",
      "Target": "365,134",
      "Value": "#move",
      "Description": "Move to Javascript menu"
    },
    {
      "Command": "XMove",
      "Target": "116,426",
      "Value": "#move",
      "Description": "Move to search box"
    }
  ]
}

From where do get the x/y coordinates? Are you using a tool or extension for this?

Yes, I use an extension. You can see in first video in top right corner that gives the coordinates

Hi all, @admin

Lately I’m having several errors that didn’t happen before and although I’ve had answers to my questions, there doesn’t seem to be a satisfactory solution and I don’t have a workaround. Not sure what to do.

Regards

Hi @Rasec - I tested it and all works good for me. Did you check that your browser zoom factor is set to 100%?:

My test: → XClick hits the menu exactly:

I used this tool to get the xy: extension

Hi @admin, thanks for.youe answer . I’ve installed that extension but doesn´t show the coordinates for me. When you say zoom factor you mean set 100% with Ctrl + or Ctrl -? If yes, then I have the zoom factor set to 100%.
