Key Strokes

This task allows you to send key strokes to the current application window which is in focus. You can use this task in a chain after a Command , or Open Documents, or MacLauncher task to launch an application/document etc..and send it key strokes.

The key stroke commands should be entered one on each line, in the Command area. If more than one key is being entered on a line, they should be separated by '+'.

You can also specify a delay time in milliseconds (1000 milliseconds = 1 second) between commands, using the following syntax:
delay=5000 (this would delay for 5 seconds)

Examples:
ctrl+P
delay=3000
alt+x
shift+a (for A)
t+e+s+t (for test)
shift+t+e+s+t (for TEST)
alt+f+c (this will close an in focus Internet Explorer window)
