One important question #62

How can i access the data for my mouse movements and clicks? And when i stars generate images script it says like below:

Select a profile by typing its name or the matching ID. Files are being sorted by "last modified - descending". Type "sort " to change or reverse the sorting method. Possible options are Creation Time (1), File Size (2), File Version (3), Last Modified (4), Session Count (5) and Track Length (6).

Page 1 of 0. Type "page " to switch.

Type your choice here: 1 Error: Invalid profile index: 1 (must be between 1-0)

Hey, I know the instructions are really lacking right now, have you run the start_tracking.py script first to actually record the data? It might just be that you don't have any files saved.

Yes start_tracking.py works fine but i have issue with generate_images,py. it says select a profile but i don't know where profiles or what should i write.

Could you check that you actually have ".mtk" files in "Documents/Mouse Tracks/Data"? It seems the generate images script can't find any for whatever reason. Bear in mind the script saves on an interval of like 5 minutes or so I think, rather than constantly writing all the data, so if you've only loaded up for a minute or two at a time then that might be the issue.

Hmm i think that's the issue, there is no Data folder in Mouse Tracks. Only "AppList.txt" and "settings.ini" available.

And can you please tell me, how can i use colors? Like below or just Jet. [GenerateTracks] FileName = [[RunningTimeSeconds]]Tracks - [ColourProfile] [HighPrecision] ColourProfile = map.Jet.colour

Ah glad to hear, I know things aren't particularly intuitive right now, I've got 5 years more experience though so v2 will eventually be a ton better when I get round to it :)

And can you please tell me, how can i use colors?

It should ask you each time you run generate_images.py (which you should also be able to launch if you right click the tray icon). The colours are defined in config/colours.txt but I think you found that already.
