HowTo?: Same key does something different in different apps

[IceGothic]

Here's what I want EventGhost to do:

If I press the '0' key on the keyboard when the "Zoom Player" window is focused, "Alt-Enter" keys are emulated. While if the "Winamp" window is focused, pressing the same '0' key will emulated the "Shift-O" keys.

Those actions and applications are examples here. The point is that I want to make the same key do something different in different applications, kind of a app-relative setup.

Is there a way to do this?

Thank you!

yes!

use the plugin: "Task Create/Switch Events" to detect which program is in focus.

then use the "enable exclusive" action to set which part of the macro tree is active. Create a branch of macros for each application that you want to control.

everything you want is in the default tree that comes with the install. I am attaching it in case you lost it.

I might add this is one of the most frequently asked topics. Try searching for "Enable exclusive" and you'll surely find some similiar threads.

We really should add this information to the wiki..
