Jrdburrow Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 Hi, kinda new to AutoIt, so if this is something that is real simple and I just haven't found it yet, forgive me. What I'm wanting to do, is send key entries to one window running in the background, while actively working in another. So far I can only figure out how to send to a window that is currently active. Which is nice and still speeds up and simplifies some of my work, but it would be nice to be able to work on something more complex while the script takes care of the monotonous.

somdcomputerguy Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 (edited) Maybe ControlSend will work for you.

Jrdburrow Posted July 24, 2010 Author Share Posted July 24, 2010 Maybe ControlSend will work for you.Almost. That works to send it to the specified window as desired, but it also pulls that window up, interrupting what I am trying to do in the other window.

ProgAndy Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Possibly WinSetState($hWin, "", @SW_HIDE) could help to force the window to stay hidden *GERMAN* [note: you are not allowed to remove author / modified info from my UDFs]My UDFs:[_SetImageBinaryToCtrl] [_TaskDialog] [AutoItObject] [Animated GIF (GDI+)] [ClipPut for Image] [FreeImage] [GDI32 UDFs] [GDIPlus Progressbar] [Hotkey-Selector] [Multiline Inputbox] [MySQL without ODBC] [RichEdit UDFs] [SpeechAPI Example] [WinHTTP]UDFs included in AutoIt: FTP_Ex (as FTPEx), _WinAPI_SetLayeredWindowAttributes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
