Scripts have stopped working with windows 10 and Powerpoint

Post by rwellenberger » 26 May 2022, 17:39

I've created several simple scripts that used to work fine and saved a ton of time. But then one they just stopped working. Here is a simple script I used for inserting an image into a shape in Powerpoint:

Code: Select all

^+p::
Send !JDSFP
Send {Enter}
return
Now when I run it, it just types DSFP into the shape as text. Not sure what happened. Has anyone seen this before? Thanks in advance.

Sending !J (Capital J) is the same as sending !+j (Alt-Shift-j). Some applications are not set up to work that way. Try sending !j instead.
