Nearly every video media player I use I can double click left actual mouse button and it expands/collapses the size of the window. From full to windowed and back again. All of them but Windows Media Center.
Can EG be made to "see" the mouse double click and convert it to the keyboard strokes needed to expand to full screen in WMC?
Gracies.

From https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/lib ... 04226.aspx Alt+Enter toggles WMC fullscreen. You can use the send keystrokes macro to send this key combo, and I don't even think it will effect other windows because I believe that particular shortcut only applies to WMC. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one around here that still uses WMC!!

Thanks for that.
That is what I do all the time.... with my remote.
But...
I want the mouse double click action to send the key strokes via EG.

If you can see your mouse ( if not I believe there is a mouse plugin) clicks in the log then there is a macro where if an event arrives twice in a given period of time EG jumps to a macro with your macro being the keystroke emulation. Is wmc giving you a handshake error or something similar until you minimize or maximize the window?
Re: Turn mouse double click into keystroke via EG?
Thanks again J,
I didn't realize there was a mouse plugin.
I found it and will futz with it in the morning.
I'll be back. THANKS AGAIN.

Update...
I got it working. Sort of.
Using the mouse event plugin but instead of a consistent double left click (like all my other video media players) I used MouseEvent.Middle.Down to send the keystrokes to WMC.
Now... If only I hadn't dropped my Logitech Dark Net Mouse 20 or so times already and effected the "feel" of the mouse wheel pressing action it wouldn't feel as janky in the hand.
Best mouse I ever used by the way.
Not the buttons and all that... the sensor. It works great on near any surface.
Like the arm of my LazyBoy for example...
