Greetings,
I've looked at the related posts and got a working baseline using Notepad. As expected, "my text " string was sent to minimized Notepad.
AutoItSetOption("WinTitleMatchMode",2) ; Partial title match ControlSend("Notepad", "", "Edit1", "my text ")
I am trying to accomplish the same with minimized VLC player, using keystrokes to navigate its menus. My keystrokes are not executing however.
AutoItSetOption("WinTitleMatchMode",2) ; Partial title match ControlSend("VLC media player", "", "", "!a" & "{DOWN 6}" & "{ENTER}") ; I also tried the controlID "QWidget" which I pulled from Autoit Info Window. ; ControlSend("VLC media player", "", "QWidget", "!a" & "{DOWN 6}" & "{ENTER}")
Any suggestions?
Below is the Info Summary.
