How to use:
- Drag and drop the "Move Window" activity onto the workflow.
- Configure the properties by specifying the process name, process title, display title, or window variable, along with the new position and dimensions (X, Y, Width, Height) of the window.
- Optionally, configure the delay.
- Execute the workflow to modify the specified window's position and dimensions.
Example: Consider an example where the "Move Window" activity is used to move a window with the process name "SampleApp" to a new position (X=100, Y=100) and set new dimensions (Width=500, Height=300):
Move Window:
Process Name: "SampleApp"
X Value: 100
Y Value: 100
Width: 500
Height: 300
In this example, the activity modifies the position and dimensions of the window associated with the process name "SampleApp." The specified X, Y, Width, and Height values determine the new layout of the window.
