I'm not sure why but when I run the capture macro I made it never playback the keystrokes I enter even though I selected the option to record them. I want to run the macro in one specific program and each time I make the macro I select the scope to be specific program and I also select it to be the specified program from the list at the bottom. But when I run back the macro it seems to always run in whatever window is active and gives no preference to the program I want it to run in. When it runs in the program I want it to it will only playback mouse clicks and movements, but no keystrokes, I do believe outside of that program keystrokes do work, but that is useless to me.
So my questions are:
1. Why do my keystrokes not playback when I use a specific program to play them in, (I have the specific program active) and how can I fix this?
2. Why does the macro run at all outside of the program I have specified, and how can I fix this?
I'm somewhat new to macros and I only recently purchased this product, so please excuse me for the noobish question.
