I do not know what script you have in mind.
I used no script.
But maybe you have in mind a copy of the example.
It is here:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<EventGhost Version="1669">
    <Folder Name="Cycle" Expanded="True">
        <Macro Name="Emulate Keystrokes: {Ctrl+Numpad1}" Expanded="True">
            <Event Name="Main.RunCycle" />
            <Event Name="Main.Ctrl-1" />
            <Action>
                Window.SendKeys(u'{Ctrl+Numpad1}', False)
            </Action>
            <Action>
                EventGhost.TriggerEvent(u'Ctrl-2', 60.0)
            </Action>
        </Macro>
        <Macro Name="Emulate Keystrokes: {Ctrl+Numpad2}" Expanded="True">
            <Event Name="Main.Ctrl-2" />
            <Action>
                Window.SendKeys(u'{Ctrl+Numpad2}', False)
            </Action>
            <Action>
                EventGhost.TriggerEvent(u'Ctrl-7', 50.0)
            </Action>
        </Macro>
        <Macro Name="Emulate Keystrokes: {Ctrl+Numpad7}" Expanded="True">
            <Event Name="Main.Ctrl-7" />
            <Action>
                Window.SendKeys(u'{Ctrl+Numpad7}', False)
            </Action>
            <Action>
                EventGhost.TriggerEvent(u'Ctrl-1', 40.0)
            </Action>
        </Macro>
    </Folder>
</EventGhost>

hi pako

that works great !

many thanks !!!

one more question, lets say 2

1. can i isolate this configuration to only a independent software, i mean that this keystroke swaps getting only activated within a single program and not within all software where i move over with my mouse
2. how i can stop this configuration without to shutdown the eventghost SW ?

will be great to hear you soon

thanks in advance

If the action "Find a window" precedes action "Emulate keystrokes",
then emulated keystrokes should only be directed to the window, which had previously been found.

2. how i can stop this configuration without to shutdown the eventghost SW ?

There are more possibilities.
For example, you can disable an entire folder or some macro.
