I'm skinning Zoran's Picviewer.net. I'm trying to use sendkey commands like the following

"ACTIVATE;PicViewer.net||Sendkey;^{UP}||GETFOC US"

So, PV embeds perfectly. Activate works great. Sendkey works perfectly. Getfocus does NOT retain focus to RR. FOcus stays with PV and I have to click on the screen to bring back RR. Anyone have any ideas??

This may have to do with the fact that PV may be "pulling the focus" to itself after RR already "obtained" the focus.. so the focus is going to PV, the key is being sent, then RR regains focus (by the getfocus), and PV pulls it back after the key is processed... there's not much that can be done about that.

what if I were to use the idle timer to execute the getfocus after a few seconds, would that return focus to RR?

You know what, nevermind, Solved it creatively.

"Sendkey;^{UP}||Sendkey;%{Tab}"

I just sent a sendkey command after the initial action to Alt-Tab back to the original windows. Works like a charm. WHo said windows was good for nothing
