Using AHK Scripts Without Occupying Mouse/Keyboard

Post by cleetz » 08 Dec 2023, 19:00

Hello. I tried writing my scripts using ControlSend and those methods which are supposed to not require full occupation of the mouse/keyboard to no avail. I cant seem to get the scripts to ever function like they do when I write them normally when I use ControlSend . Does anyone have any methods of converting AHK scripts to maybe some JAVA or other program that can send the script functions I write while not requiring mouse/keyboard control? I want to be able to use AHK on multiple applications at once separately. Thanks for Your time

If it doesn’t work with AHK, it’s probably not going to work with another language, especially if it were simply a translation of the AHK code and not something like code injection to change the way the receiving application operates (something for which you would likely have to hire a skilled developer). It’s more of a function of the application not accepting virtual mouse clicks and keystrokes than what’s sending them.
