UI Interaction Questions

[thisismyshine]

Sorry, I looked for these answers but couldn't find them anywhere. Not sure if there is some place online that explains things - if so, I'd love the link.

I had some questions about ui interaction.
Copy/paste - how do I use this? What would I use this for? How is it different, for example, from copy to clipboard etc.

Current focus - i can't figure this out, how do I use it? What would I use it for? My first impression is this is how you get to make your selection through ui interaction while the macro is running as opposed to while the macro is created, is that correct?

Thanks!

'Copy' is usefull to copy to clipboard the select text in the current window.
'Paste' to paste text (either from clipboard of fix/variable text according to selected action in the next screen) at the current pointer position.
'Current focus' stands for 'the screen/window you are currently on at execution time'. It's up to you ensure you are on the appropriate window.

Hope it'll help.
