Flakey Send?


 Share

Recommended Posts

Hi, I'm using Send to send !{F3}... occasionally the window only seems to receive F3 instead of !{F3}.. that is, usually it works properly and the ALT F3 action is executed... but occasionally I see that an F3 action is executed. Because it is intermittent it is hard to debug.

Does anyone know why this occurs, and if there is a workaround? Would ControlSend perhaps be more reliable?

Send({Alt Down})
Send({F3})
sleep(100)
Send({Alt Up})

The way to go in ANY case is to use ControlSend!

However, I'v noticed some functions not to respond to that as well.

In most cases this is due to timing issues (as in speed). In the past I delt with this

by adding a short pause in executing the script, like so:

;some code
Sleep(111)  ; this will pause the script for .11 seconds
;some code
Sleep(111)
;some code

etc.

Hope this helps,

Martin

Might be worth looking up SendKeyDelay and SendKeyDownDelay in AutoItSetOption.
