Send key when minimzed window ?

[_Zen]

Im trying to write an auto F8 , to work in minimized YB_OnlineClient window.

So with Send() it works good when window is visible. But it does nothing when it minimized .

My code :

#include <GuiConstants.au3>

Global $Paused
HotKeySet("{PAUSE}", "TogglePause")
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")
call("TogglePause")

While 1
    Send("{F8}")
    sleep(500)
WEnd

Func TogglePause()
$Paused = NOT $Paused
While $Paused
sleep(100)
WEnd
ToolTip("zzz")
EndFunc

Func Terminate()
Exit 0
EndFunc

Please help me

I realize this is for a game, but I googled for the client, and don't think there was a single bit of information in english.

I suspect it's a web client or java client, and it's for a game.

Not a gamer so I'll leave it to them to help.

In notepad : Press F5 is add Time/Date

i use this code :

Run("notepad", "", @SW_MINIMIZE)
WinWait("Untitled - Notepad")
ControlFocus("Untitled - Notepad", "", "Edit1")
ControlSend("Untitled - Notepad", "","Edit1","Today is : {ENTER} xxx")

Yeah yeah , it can Enter to new line ( happy )

But when i try this code :

Run("notepad", "", @SW_MINIMIZE)
WinWait("Untitled - Notepad")
ControlFocus("Untitled - Notepad", "", "Edit1")
ControlSend("Untitled - Notepad", "","Edit1","Today is : {F5} xxx")
