Code
Copy
Select All

if (BFS.Window.GetText(BFS.Window.GetFocusedWindow()).Contains("Notepad");
        {
            //send the tab key
            BFS.Input.SendKeys("{TAB}");

            //send the enter key
            BFS.Input.SendKeys("{ENTER}");
            BFS.Input.SendKeys("{ENTER}");
        }

How can I add that condition? ]]> RE: How to create macros that emulate keystrokes? https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-create-macros-that-emulate-keystrokes/?ID=30539153-9084-46dc-b0d4-80e1fb9e860a#5 Tue, 31 Oct 2017 15:40:00 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-create-macros-that-emulate-keystrokes/?ID=30539153-9084-46dc-b0d4-80e1fb9e860a#5 ClipboardFusion thank you. Ive been tinkering with it all day, and I got my full macro to work, with about a houndred lines of code. I also figured out the wait timer. ]]> RE: How to create macros that emulate keystrokes? https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-create-macros-that-emulate-keystrokes/?ID=30539153-9084-46dc-b0d4-80e1fb9e860a#4 Tue, 31 Oct 2017 14:19:12 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-create-macros-that-emulate-keystrokes/?ID=30539153-9084-46dc-b0d4-80e1fb9e860a#4 ClipboardFusion I've put together another macro that should show you how to add a delay to your code. I hope it works for you! ]]> RE: How to create macros that emulate keystrokes? https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-create-macros-that-emulate-keystrokes/?ID=30539153-9084-46dc-b0d4-80e1fb9e860a#3 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 21:06:47 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-create-macros-that-emulate-keystrokes/?ID=30539153-9084-46dc-b0d4-80e1fb9e860a#3 ClipboardFusion Thank you. This is pretty helpful. AS long as I can figure out what the correct name for all the keys are, I can make some interesting macros. How about adding a wait timer. Is there a code for that? ]]> RE: How to create macros that emulate keystrokes? https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-create-macros-that-emulate-keystrokes/?ID=30539153-9084-46dc-b0d4-80e1fb9e860a#2 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 17:51:03 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-create-macros-that-emulate-keystrokes/?ID=30539153-9084-46dc-b0d4-80e1fb9e860a#2 ClipboardFusion I've attached a Macro that should work for you. Here's how to get it into ClipboardFusion:

  • Download the file attached to this post
  • Open the ClipboardFusion Settings window
  • On the "Macros" tab, click the "Import" button
  • Select the file you downloaded in the first step
  • In the window that pops up, you can review the code and assign the Macro a HotKey
  • Click OK to close the Macro Edit window, then OK again to save and apply your changes

I hope this works for you! ]]> How to create macros that emulate keystrokes? https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-create-macros-that-emulate-keystrokes/?ID=30539153-9084-46dc-b0d4-80e1fb9e860a Mon, 30 Oct 2017 13:34:48 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-create-macros-that-emulate-keystrokes/?ID=30539153-9084-46dc-b0d4-80e1fb9e860a ClipboardFusion As a person who has no coding experience, and does not know C# at all, but have used ArsClip in the past, I would like some input on how I could make some macros work like I want.

I work with some systems that need to perform a lot of selections in different dropdowns and such, on webpages, and in my current program, I can simply tell the macro to run key strokes by writing [TAB REPEAT=1][ENTER REPEAT=2], this will make it Tab to the next selection and hit enter.

I know you have the BFS.Input.SendKeys function in C#, and I am sure it can do the same thing, but how does this work? ]]>
