Hi,

I've the following Hotstring:


If I type "Dear" it will instantly replaced, that's ok, but it will be replaced with "Dea rMrs. and Mr." and not "Dear Mrs. and Mr."

It works well for me, this what I got

Such misbehavior might occur if the system is under heavy load and the user types a space after "Dear". That space might take effect before the hotstring has finished sending its characters.

If that is what's happening, you could try specifying K-1 in the hotstring's options to makes its KeyDelay -1 vs. 0. There is also an item on the to-do list to research ways of improving reliability in this area.

Hi Chris,

at the moment it works still without k-1, but as I have seen the bug, it also didn't work with k-1.
