Alt+Tab to Switch Between Windows

[jay]

Is it possible to use the Alt+Tab to switch between the Mini Mouse window and 2 other?  Two consecutive Alt+Tab steps does not switch focus the way in which the recording was done.

Hi Jay,

MMM will fail to switch between 2 windows because the ALT key is not held down during the tab during playback. When you record the macro the hold te alt key down and press tab, however when this is played back by MMM it plays back as two consecutive alt+tab. With each alt+tab at playback the alt key is lifted. I have added function key holding to the update list for MMM. To make this work with MMM you are going to have to try a different approach.

Check out www.turnssoft.com/conditions.html#windowtitle and www.turnssoft.com/conditions.html#selectwindowbyname or www.turnssoft.com/conditions.html#selectwindowbyprocessid

If you need any help getting a macro working with the conditions above I will be happy to help.

Regards,
Steve.

Hello,
I am trying to switch windows but with no success.

I tried alt+ tab

And i tried to use :
18 | RUN ACTION | SELECT WINDOW BY NAME | names.xlsx - Microsoft Excel



I want to copy data from cells in excel to a web form in mozilla.
Is there any way to simulate alt+tqb without problems?

Thank you

Hello,

If you only need Excel and Mozilla, you can start the macro from one of these by using Mini Mouse Macro shortcut keys (mine is set to F3) to start the macro, so you just have to « Alt-Tab » between 2 programs (Mozzy and Excel).

If not, windows-tab opens a window where you can navigate between open programs with arrow keys.

You could also maybe put each program in a half screen and click on their title bar, but I’m not a fan of macros relying on positions as I often change screen configurations (office vs home office)

Cheers!

Thank you very much!

i tried several times and it works with the following macros : 



20 | RUN ACTION | SELECT WINDOW BY NAME | Firefox



18 | RUN ACTION | SELECT WINDOW BY NAME | names


(names is the name of the excel spreadsheet)
