Macro Scheduler 15

Closing Notepad


 

So we've printed the document.  Now all we need to do is close Notepad.  How do we close Notepad with keystrokes?  There are a number of ways.  Notice that under the File menu is the usual Exit option.   If we use ALT-F to open the file menu the Exit option has 'x' underlined, so ALT-FX will close Notepad.

 

In Windows ALT-F4 will also close a window.  Macro Scheduler also offers a CloseWindow command, which will probably do the job (though this doesn't necessarily close all applications as not all programs process "close window" messages in the same way).

 

Let's use ALT-FX to simulate true user input:

 

SetFocus>Notepad*

Press ALT

Send>fx

Release ALT

 

And Notepad should disappear.
