Hello!
OOps, wrong place
1) I need to run notepad (done)
2) I want wait until notepad's window is active <--need help with this
3) I want send some keystokes (done, but not working as i Need)<--need help with this
4) I want program to move window to given location <--need help with this
I have already made some source (from other examples).
I am thankful if you add functions for 2nd and 4th requests, and if you help me improve 3rd thing. I mean I want send string "AbCd123!&\/+-.," as it is, current function sends all characters in upper- or lowercase, it dont send special characters.Also I want change it to send key combination alt + F4.
If I am unclear, ask more questions
