Hi!

I'm a total rockie, and no programer, and hope for some tips here:

I whant to send commands to two different applications, regardless of wether they have focus or not. Application#1 is Steinberg Nuendo, and Application#2 is an Adobe Air-app I have a programmer make.

I have a .ahk script sending ControlSend commands using this syntax:

^5:: controlsend, , ^5, Nuendo
^+6::controlsend, , {F4}, Nuendo

I have ca 20 lines of controlsend to Nuendo working fine, but the Air app isn't taking commands so smoothly.



F8:: ContolSend, , ^n, AirAppName

does not work without focus on the Air App



^!3:: ControlSend, , ^e, AirAppName

works without focus on the Air App (as it should)




I've tried the command addressed to the "Class", witch according to the Window Spy is ahk_class MozillaUIWindowClass - same result.

I've put in SetKeyDelay, 100, 100, 100 to make sure the hotkey isn't fired to fast - same result.


Is there anything about how Air listens for commands that can explain this, and/or is there an AutoHotkey sollution to it??


I'm thankfull for any help!!

Why don't you just try it this way, doubt it will make a difference, but worth a try.

Thanks! Both tips are tried, but made no difference...

Is the AirApp, Onyx-VJ and could you solve your problem in the meantime?

You can also try the other variations of Send, in case the program doesn't allow ControlSend (ControlPlay etc. etc.)
