What are the differences between Hover & MoveMouseTo Actions?
Hover, Searches for the given object on the screen, if it matches the object then hovers the given object, dragging the mouse.
MoveMouseTo Searches for the given object on the screen, if it matches the object then moves to the position of the given object.
Below is a video that better explains the difference between Hover and MoveMouseTo. You can copy and paste the sample scenario below and try it yourself
Example:
MoveMouseTo Text “Take Screenshot”
MoveMouseTo Text “Projects”
Hover Text “Agent Registered”
Hover Text “History”
Hover Text “Run All Steps”
Seray explained so good how it works.
Let me explain when to use it.
Movemouseto function goes to the exact point at once, not like a real mouse move. It directly pins on the point.
In some websites, Using MoveMouseTo function doesn not open the “SubMenus”. In that case, Hover is the solution!.
