Hi,

is it a Bug of AHK? If I set the clipboard within a hotkey, for example InDesign will Paste the old content of the clipboard. It seems it does not know about the changed clipboard. Switching to other applications and then back to ID sometimes works. Shouldn't AHK tell a applications that the clipboard has changed? Or is it bad design and it has to be done manually by SendMessage, but which message?

I suspect this is caused by the fact that this particular application possibly maintains its own internal clipboard and does not monitor the external OS clipboard for changes.

I don't think there's any standard way to notify an app that the clipboard has changed, other than to simply change it (which doesn't seem to work in this case).
