rbaguley Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Hey all, I am trying to create a program that kicks off and then controls an XnView slideshow. However, I am having some issues that are baffling me. Firstly, I kick off the slideshow with a simple run command: Run("C:\test\slides.exe") Then, I do some other stuff in another window, and want to come back to the slideshow window and move to the next slide by pressing the right arrow: $winactivatething = WinActivate("C:\test\slide1.gif","") If $winactivatething = 0 Then MsgBox(0, "Can't activate image display window. AAARGH!", ) Exit EndIf ;send right arrow for next screen Send ("{RIGHT}") I know that the window title is "C:\test\slide1.gif" from Autoit window Info, but it does not work: the WinActivate seems to fail, generating the error message box. Any ideas what I am missing here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
