Hi
I'm not familiar with Macro Scheduler, but i try to help a friend who wants to send different text based on hotkeys to the same images. An example from what he wants is this:
If Press Shift+F1 move mouse to Image_1 and send Text_1
If Press Shift+F2 move mouse to Image_1 and send Text_2
If Press Shift+F3 move mouse to Image_1 and send Text_3
etc.
Is there a simple way to do this?
Thanks in advance and sorry that i don't have enough knowledge!

Re: Different hotkeys for move mouse and send text
If there's no discernible difference other than the text he's sending, then you could either :
1. Have a different script for each text version, where the only thing that changes if the text that's sent, and the hotkey.
or
2. If the scenario allows, just have one script which asks the user which text he wants to send, maybe by using PopupMenu or even Input.
Either way, start with the Image Recognition Wizard to identify the image. I'm not too clear on exactly what you mean by sending text to an image, but the Wizard will give you a variety of options.
So the structure for the second option would be something along the lines of :
1. Image recognition to find the position or an image, or recognize an image exists.
2. Ask which text we want to send (we'll do this now in case it removes focus from step 3)
3. Some kind of action? Moving the mouse, clicking on the image, or somewhere else?
4. Sending the text we chose in step 2
