Send key to minimized window...

[Icy]

Hello,

I looked through many topics, but still didn't found any working answer. So I'm asking by myself:

How can I make simple command - to send "space" or "some letter" for minimized application? I guess ControlSend is for that, but ControlSend("NosTale","","","x") doesn't work... Only when maximized.

Please help me.

Most basic example:

AutoItSetOption("WinTitleMatchMode",2)

Run("notepad.exe")

WinWait("Notepad")
WinSetState("Notepad","",@SW_MINIMIZE)
ControlSend("Notepad","","Edit1","This text was send when window was minimized.")
Sleep(1000)
WinSetState("Notepad","",@SW_RESTORE)

I guess ControlSend is for that, but ControlSend("NosTale","","","x") doesn't work... Only when maximized.

Thanks dude, but I had to change it a bit. It worked on my LAST TRY. If it wouldn't work that time , then I would give up... It's working perfectly with these lines:

AutoItSetOption ("WinTitleMatchMode",2)

While 1

Sleep (2000)

ControlSend ("NosTale","","","{Space}")

WEnd
