Sending "Alt + 2" keystroke to a Citrix application

[composedgaurav]

Hey guys, does anybody know how to send a combination of keys to a Citrix application? Using the Navigate stage with Global Send Keys and "ALT + 2" as Text parameter is resulting in sending "2" to the application, not Alt + 2.

use Alt - % and try with "%+2"

Thanks for replying. Do you mean this? If yes, then it did not work

Hi composedgaurav,

Assuming you do not want the plus sign try the keystroke for Alt + 2 as:

"%2"

@mohan12 the shortcut switches the calculator app to scientific mode.

@VJR Still not working using Text input as "%2", tried with global send keys and global send keys event both.

Hi composedgaurav,

Its working when given as "%{2}" for Global Send Keys.
Before that spy the main calc window and Activate it.

 

[composedgaurav]

Still not working for me. I have opened Calculator application actually from Citrix

Hi composedgaurav,

Calc app on Citrix shouldn't cause any problem.
I assume this is after spying the main window of the calculator and then Activating the main Calculator window and not the text area.

Dear Folks,

For Citrix App(Region Mode), global send key events will give the effective result, whereas global send keys sometimes will not give expected result with region mode.

For keystrokes please visit here

Thanks
