Macro not working when keyboard emulation after kb shortcut

[nathan323]

It seems like I cant create a macro that contains a keyboard shortcut for an Event, then a Keyboard Emulation action./ Is this normal behaviour?
I am newish to prog.

The macro works fine if I Execute Item from right-click menu in Eventghost, but if add keyboard shortcut as an Event and trigger that way, it carries out every Action except the Keyboard Emulation.

This is my code:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<EventGhost Version="1722">
    <Macro Name="Find Window: vlc.exe" Expanded="True">
        <Event Name="Keyboard.Shift+Ctrl+U" />
        <Action>
            Window.FindWindow(u'vlc.exe', None, u'QWidget', None, None, None, False, 0.0, 0)
        </Action>
        <Action>
            Window.SendKeys(u'n', False, 2)
        </Action>
    </Macro>
</EventGhost>

Any help would be much appreciated.

Keyboard emulation is broken for me too, (both methods), in Windows 10.
EG .1722
Keyboard plugin version = "1.1.1",

Edit: You need to run EventGhost as an admin.
