Title: Pasting text (newbie)
Post by: bcman on December 07, 2018, 01:39:06 PM

Hi

After a long search on the forum and manual I can't find any direction how to:

Paste text based on when I say commando

Ideally I would like to depend the text based on the time of the day (morning/evening/night)

can someone give me some direction?

thanks!

To paste text, first send it to the clipboard using the "Set a Text Value to the Windows Clipboard" action, then use a Ctrl-V keypress.

Checking the time of day is a little more involved:

Code: [Select]

Begin Text Compare : [{EXP: {TIMEHOUR24}{TIMEMINUTE}  >= 0600 And {TIMEHOUR24}{TIMEMINUTE}  <= 1600}] Equals '1'
    Set Windows clipboard to 'Morning'
Else If Text Compare : [{EXP: {TIMEHOUR24}{TIMEMINUTE}  >= 1601 And {TIMEHOUR24}{TIMEMINUTE}  <= 2300}] Equals '1'
    Set Windows clipboard to 'Evening'
Else If Text Compare : [{EXP: {TIMEHOUR24}{TIMEMINUTE}  >= 2301 And {TIMEHOUR24}{TIMEMINUTE}  <= 0559}] Equals '1'
    Set Windows clipboard to 'Night'
End Condition
Press Left Ctrl+V keys and hold for 0,06 seconds and release

What are you trying to paste to? Can you post the contents of your action list(right click it, click "Copy All as Text")?

...You can't just paste that into an action and expect it to work.

I've exported the command so you can import the .vap attached to this post.
