dooshorama Posted April 5, 2004 Posted April 5, 2004 hello again, got another one.. in XP, "blockinput,on" prohibits sending ALT (or "!"). for example "sendkey,!a!b!c" sends "abc". not sure if this is just how it is or if it is a bug.
ezzetabi Posted April 5, 2004 Posted April 5, 2004 It indeed should send ALT+a ALT+b and ALT+c... Strange, and nasty.
Valik Posted April 5, 2004 Posted April 5, 2004 Microsoft broke the Alt key and BlockInput in one of their critical updates a long time ago. This is a known issue with both versions of AutoIt with no know workaround.
dooshorama Posted April 5, 2004 Author Posted April 5, 2004 this just hit me today.. F10 also works to activate the menus.
Valik Posted April 9, 2004 Posted April 9, 2004 also {ALT}letter often opens the menus.But not with BlockInput on under Windows XP, which is what this thread was about...
ezzetabi Posted April 10, 2004 Posted April 10, 2004 Ops.... I understood that the problem was a ALT+key or ALT, key problem...
Guest zensei Posted May 10, 2004 Posted May 10, 2004 Very annoying problem indeed especially when you have so many scripts affected... Any new info about this BLOCKINPUT - ALT KEY - WinXP problem folks? Does anyone know which MS critical update that breaks this? Cheers - Andre
