Yehnfikm8Gq Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 I can't answer the question offhand (in fact I don't recollect red Xs) but are you talking from the page author's viewpoint or to stop the action on a PC at your location? If it's at your location, what is the intent and under what circumstances can it be cancelled? Password protected? PC reboot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acantor Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 It is possible, with Macro Express, to "appropriate" the three icons on the top-right corner of a window, as well as scroll bars, system menu, borders, menus, and so on. Create a new macro, choose "Mouse Event" as the activation, and then explore! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macros can be activated when the Maximize or Minimize icons are clicked, but I can't find any reference to the Close icon. ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right. But if you choose "Area on a window," set the coordinates so that they exactly cover the close button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwards Posted April 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 Well thanks guys. It doesn't look like it's an easy thing to do. And sorry about misspelling the title, it should have read "Disable" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
