Encapsulate, or sandbox AIT interactions?

[BobFX]

HI,

AIT is an incredible tool, thanks to all that made it possible.

The only problem, since it manipulates keyboard and mouse events, there can be unwanted interactions.

For example, I start a script that process a video clip to convert audio and extract and process subtitles using tools that do not have a command line mode.

Each step takes time before the AIT controled window pop-ups. If I do nothing during that time, all is well, but if I'm working on something else my own actions are going to mess up the scrip.

Is there a way to maybe virtualise the AIT script and all the windows it starts to make them immune to user interaction, or even to other scrips that could run in parallel?

I have a multi-core processor and fast SSD drives to work on, so parallel working is often efficient, except when one script messes wit another...

Mess up or not is your programming skills!

Why can not I express my idea or personal opinions?
Does it violate forum rules?

And I think I'm not welcome here! and also my last time!

Too many people like to criticize others here!
And it's also why people need to create new accounts for new questions

You did not understand the question. The programs work well by themselves, I'm searching a way to make then immune to external interactions.

I must also say that your grammar strange it is...

It is true that functions as WinWaitActive, SendKeepActive are the minimum to use

Personnally i create a MyWinWaitActivate inplace of WinWaitActive to execute Winctivate if the Windows is not active followed by the WinWaitActive

Func MyWinWaitActivate($Par1, $Par2 = "", $iTimeout = 0)
    If (WinWait($Par1, $Par2, $iTimeout) = 0) Then Return 0
    If Not WinActive($Par1, $Par2) Then WinActivate($Par1, $Par2)
    WinWaitActive($Par1, $Par2)
EndFunc   ;==>MyWinWaitActivate

That solved a lot of script desynchronisation

Take care with AIT

Thanks jpm, I'll see if this can help with my routines.
