some questions (need help plz)

[Paton]

I was using some older version of AutoIt for quite some time and switched to 3.1 like 6-7 weeks ago. I like the new GUI and got some questions about it and about the Send command.

1. The Send command does send text to slow I made a simple script like:

Send("hello{ENTER}")
Sleep(2000)
Send("test test{ENTER}")
Sleep(2000)
Send("test test test{ENTER}")

I let this run for example in notepad window and the String gets sent to slow, letter by letter.. I even have set SendKeyDelay to 1, but it didnt help. I want that each line gets sent instantly quick. Is there a way to achieve this ?

2. GUIs: Can i run a GUI, active another window, run a script there and reopen the GUI ?

3. GUIs: Can I run a GUI and keep it on the top, while i active another window and let a script run there ?

4. If 2. and 3. is possible, could someone point me to the right functions to use for that ? I will find out myself how to do it

Thanks for all the help in advance.

A1. Put the string into the clip board first .

ClipPut("hello")
Send(ClipGet() & "{ENTER}")
Sleep(2000)
ClipPut("test test")
Send(ClipGet() & "{ENTER}")
Sleep(2000)
ClipPut("test test test")
Send(ClipGet() & "{ENTER}")

A2& 3. Not sure what you meant but mabye trying look and WinActive() > Win Activate() > GUISetState().

A4. Above.
