wont write

[ljkkda]

ok i made this script to write some text in a hided window "($window)" after a specified time... and then go back to the last window where i was active "($window2)" ...

the problem is if i have no window activated (im only on desktop) the script wont write in the window "($window)" !

but if a have any window opened like explorer , txt editor ore something it works...!!

whats wrong here ?.?

  Quote

$window = WinGetTitle("")

$window2 = WinGetTitle("")

while $window2 = WinGetTitle("")

winactivate ($window)

ControlClick ( $window, "", 1 , "LEFT" , 1 )

send ("SOME TEXT")

send ("{Enter}")

WinSetState($window, "" , @SW_hide)

winactivate ($window2)

sleep (900000)

$window2 = WinGetTitle("")

winactivate ($window)

ControlClick ( $window, "", 1 , "LEFT" , 1 )

send ("SOME TEXT")

send ("{Enter}")

winactivate ($window2)

sleep (900000)

wend

instead of using send maby you could try ControlSend ?

if i use ControlSend it wont send any text if i opened a window or not

winactivate ($window)

ControlSend ( "$window", "", 1, "SOME TEXT" )

WinSetState($window, "" , @SW_hide)

winactivate ($window2)

sleep (900000)

$window2 = WinGetTitle("")

winactivate ($window)

ControlSend ( "$window", "", 1, "SOME TEXT" )

winactivate ($window2)

sleep (900000)

wend

"$window"

Do not directly wrap quotes around a variable. You are then only using a string called "$window" rather then it's value.

ok now i use

ControlSend ( $window, "", 1, "SOME TEXT" )

and it wont send... it send only if i make a mouseclick on the edit box.

the same effect if i use this

ControlSend ( $window, "", "Edit1", "SOME TEXT" )

Little question:

Why would you want to write text into random windows?

And why do you want to activate a hidden window ( you don't need that with controlsend ) ?

Someting like a textfile would make more sense to me.

i wont write in random windows only ONE window then press ENTER and then go back to the last activate window... and this many times!

and i want that the window is hidden because i hate the "window jungle" in the "task-leiste" sorry i dont know the english word for this...

Hi there

If I try "ControlSend"or to a hidden MMC-console-window it becomes visible immediately.

Is that only for me or can you confirm this behaviour? Other windows work correct.

I use the latest Beta.
