Script to advance powerpoint based on a mouse click in a browser window

15 Oct 2021, 11:46

Hi - newbie here - looking to see if I can jumpstart my learning by someone pointing me to a script that would be a good starting point.

I have to use one of these online presentation recording tools and I shall be on camera. I have to give a pretty technical session so I want to get my script right. Unfortunately the platform has a really cr*py speaker notes capability compared to PPT. Therefore I would like to run a PPT in presenter mode showing my notes on one screen and the online recording tool which will be in a browser on another screen. Each time I click NEXT in the online recording tool in the browser I want to advance my PPT window. Anyone got anything that might be a useful starting point for this ... if not any suggestion/pointers? Is this a good use of AutoHotKey?

I don't have an image handy and I don't have access to the site but the site will be running in Chrome (or FF if its easier) and the Button text is NEXT.

If you just need to click on a button you can do this :

Code: Select all

MouseClick, left, 0, 1
In place of 0 and 1 you should enter the location of the button (i.e it's x & y coordinates)
