AutoHotkey Community

I'm a new user and need help!

We have HP thin clients with XPe and need the ability to remap Alt-Tab to Alt-F1. The unit does not process Alt-Tab correctly, I can setup the client to correcly work with Alt-F1. What I want to do is, when the user presses Alt-Tab convert it to Alt-F1. This way I don't have to retrain hundreds of users.

I've loaded AutoHotKey on the thin client and the utility seems to work just fine. All I need is the proper script command to remap this simple task (I hope it's simple). I've tried and tried, unable to make it work.\

Can any please help me????

Thanks!

This could be something you want, it makes Alt+Tab send Alt+F1:

Actually, this would probably work better:

Thank you very much for replying.

It partially works. It does switch between two windows but if I have more than two active windows it doesn't switch to the third, forth, and so on. I would like the “Cool Switching” window to pop-up so users don't see any differences.

When you hold Alt down, you’re able to repeatedly press the Tab key to allow “Cool Switching” between all current windows. The Citrix client allows this same feature but when you press Alt-F1 or repeatedly press the F1 while holding down the Alt key it allows you to “Cool Switch” between all windows (same as Alt-Tab). Is there any way that we can simulate this process?

There are some special actions that can do this; go to this page and search for AltTab. The reason I didn't suggest it in the first place is that the AltTab actions only work on NT/2000/XP, so I don't know if they'd work on your system or not.
