Save "Track Mouse Coordinates" in "WinBatch Navigator"

[MAlvis]

Some tools in WinBatch Navigator, such as "Window Information" include the capability to save the data revealed by the tool as a WinBatch entry. However the "Track Mouse Coordinates" tool does not offer this capability, routinely an obstacle to capturing the information for use in WinBatch scripts.

Please add to the "WinBatch Navigator" > "Track Mouse Coordinates" tool , the capability to save the data identified either to the Windows clipboard.

[td]

Please see the MouseCoords button in the Consolidate WIL Help file.  Also  the WinBatch Navigator source script in the WinBatch System directory.  The file is called 'default.wbt'.   You can either modify it directly or copy the relevant section to make your own version.  Search on 'Track Mouse Coordinates' to find the relevant section in default.wbt.
