Detect when an application is loaded?

Livin · Post by **Livin** » Fri Apr 03, 2009 10:05 pm

I did a search and did not find it but I'm thinking this has been worked before...

I want detect that app is not already in memory and do specific actions, including load the app.

Just use the Find Window action to search for the app's main window and do a conditional fump if the previous action was not succesful.

The idea is to check to see if XBMC is open before attempting to open it, and then enabling the keyboard emulation. Don't enable KB emulation until XBMC is already running... in case it fails to run.

I ended up doing it like the attached pic. Let me know what you think.

Were you able to do it?

I tried this sequence:

Event: X10.D
Find Window: XBMC
If successfull jum to Show Home Screen
Start Program XBMC.exe

if XBMC is open everything is fine
if XBMC is NOT open the log does not go to the IF but dies on the Find Window.

Can you help me?
