wb5 blocking sending keystrokes to a window

Thursday, December 1, 2005 by Kylde | Discussion: WindowBlinds

I use a freeware app called powerpro to send macros/text snippets to various windows, and wb5 (shareware) is somehow blocking them (i.e. the text simply doesn't get pasted into the window). Any ideas? Also, I use the same app to send mouse-actions to titlebars (e.g. I define a middle mouse-click to max/min the active window), this too doesn't work anymore?

How are you sending the text snippets?

I have installed it here and had no problems with using it to paste snippets into notepad.

How are you sending the text snippets?
Using tap-control key (a quick-doublepress) to bring up a snippets menu. Same problem with tap-apps key, which should bring up a list of past clipboard entries. Plus middle-click on desktop SHOULD bring up the start-button menu at the mouse, but it doesn't. I can remap tap-ctrl to f10 or somesuch, but without a qualifier to the key, such as alt-f10,I just know I'll hit a conflict with SOME program, SOMEtime, and I want to keep the keypress 1-handed All the above functions, and those mentioned in the 1st post, worked fine in wb3 & 4
