BrewManNH Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 ControlSend, look it up. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

GodlessSinner Posted March 30, 2013 Author Posted March 30, 2013 ControlSend, look it up.I need to send a HotKey, not a string of text. I need to send CTR-A and then CTRL-C to Opera browser. Can you help? _____________________________________________________________________________
FireFox Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 (edited) If you read the help file, you would have noticed that you can send keystrokes with that function. Edit: Unfortunately you can't use the function as there is no standard control. Here you go : Local Const $hOperaWnd = WinGetHandle("[CLASS:OperaWindowClass]") If $hOperaWnd = 0 Then Exit(1) WinActivate($hOperaWnd) WinWaitActive($hOperaWnd) Send("^a^c") ConsoleWrite(ClipGet() & @CrLf) Edited March 30, 2013 by FireFox
GodlessSinner Posted March 30, 2013 Author Posted March 30, 2013 Ok. Then why this code sends hotkey to any active window? ControlSend("General Help and Support - AutoIt Forums - Opera", "", "", Send("{CTRLDOWN}{a}{CTRLUP}")) _____________________________________________________________________________
FireFox Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 No. And I told you it's not possible with the Opera window, I gave you the solution. ;right syntax: ControlSend("General Help and Support - AutoIt Forums - Opera", "", "", "{CTRLDOWN}{a}{CTRLUP}") Br, FireFox.

Why? I need to send it when it not active or minimized at all. Please help! Edited March 30, 2013 by GodlessSinner _____________________________________________________________________________
FireFox Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 I'm pretty sure it's not possible with the Windows API. The work around would to use an Opera extension which sends the data over TCP if it's possible or through one of your websites/localhost and then retrieve it. Br, FireFox.

Very bad. _____________________________________________________________________________
FireFox Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 Very bad.It will be legit to say that if you code a function which does the job
GodlessSinner Posted March 30, 2013 Author Posted March 30, 2013 It will be legit to say that if you code a function which does the job Code doesn't work only for Opera. Sad. _____________________________________________________________________________
FireFox Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 (edited) You're not quite right. It does not work with all non standard Windows controls as I mentioned earlier. Edited March 30, 2013 by FireFox
Bert Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 code it to work with IE. If you refuse (if you insist on using Opera minimized) then your on your own. The Vollatran project My blog: http://www.vollysinterestingshit.com/
