I'd like to have the NumpadSub (or some other) key perform the same action as tab, when the limit option is enforced:


I'm not sure if this is possible, and I know it's not a bug.

I might be misunderstanding here, but I think there's a simple solution. Make your GUI window's title match the title you check for in the hotkey subroutine:

Gui,Show,, FileHelper

There are a couple of things here. (I had the window name right in my actual code )

1) because some of these edit controls have +Number in them, I can type a tab to move to the next control, but I can't type a - because it's not a number (even though I would like it to perform the tab action)
1a) related to this, the bottom outside border of a tooltip appears when I attempt to type any non-numeric characters in an edit control with +number option.

2) in the control that does not have the +Number option, I still can't type - and get {tab}.

If this is really a support issue, please feel free to move it.

I'm surprised that doesn't work. When you make NumpadSub into a hotkey, I would expect the tab keystroke to take effect unless there's some kind of intereference from the control.

I just tried the script and it seems to work on my system. I can press the minus key on the numpad to navigate to the next control. Maybe it has something to do with the issue below.

This bug has also been reported in the following topic, but no solution has been found yet (the balloon tip appears correctly on some systems but on others only its shadow appears): http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3294
