excellent, is there any trial version available

I certainly welcome this new release, especially since Insight rarely seems to contribute to this forum these days.

But it is disappointing that a bug I reported quite a long time ago has not been addressed. Has no-one else encountered this problem?

The command "Move Mouse to Tray Icon to xxx" does not work reliably. Here is an example, where I have an icon called xFirefox (renamed using Actual Window Manager in order to provide a work-around to this very problem) in my system tray, and want to move the mouse to it; so I use the command

Move Mouse to Tray icon to xFirefox

being

<MOVE MOUSE TO TRAY ICON Icon="xFirefox" Exact="TRUE" Center="TRUE" Left="0" Top="0"/>

and get this result:

Of course, the mouse should have been positioned one icon left. Please note that sometimes this command works correctly.
