Hi, I noticed that when I record keyboard actions using <CTRL> or <Alt>, this consistently fails on replay. For example, I can't get my head around how the sequence <press CTRL> <press and release F12> and then <release CTRL> should be entered in the SendKeys action. The "release CTRL" is important, because as far as I can observe, the key is "stuck" and preventing the following actions of executing correctly.
Solved! Go to Solution.
The syntax for <Alt>O is <VK_LMENU><VK_O/></VK_LMENU>
The slashes need to be specified as for well-formed XML
Hi,
Looking through our documentation below; it seems like this should be working. I'm not certain what exactly is occurring. Can you double check the documentation? Is there any other communities members that might know what the issue is here? Feel free to chime in if you might know the answer.

It seems that for Alt and Ctrl combinations, there should be a corresponding KeyDown and KeyUp code, but I have not yet found the correct syntax that consistently works on replay. If this were properly documented I would not even need the recorder. Just enter the right keys and values directly into the UI flow script.
