With Animation Support, you can make Automated Presentations and visually see the Movement of Mouse Cursor. When the Macro Action is executed, it reads current Mouse Cursor Position and reads the Screen X and Screen Y Co-Ordinates specified for the action and automates Mouse Movement from Current Screen Location to the specified Screen Co-Ordinates. The Mouse Cursor is moved in a linear direction from source location to the destination location. The Speed and Time Delay for the Mouse Movement Animation is configurable from Other Settings Screen as displayed in the Screenshot below.

Note in the above Screenshot of Other Settings, there are 2 fields which together control the Mouse Animation behavior for all the Macro Scripts. The First field allows you to configure the time delay between each consecutive Mouse Movement and the second field is titled as Animation Speeder whose value is 1 by default. The Larger the value of Mouse Animation Speeder, the lesser number of Mouse Movement steps are automated by the Application and which in turn results in faster Mouse Movement Animation.
