PassThrough


Passes the hotkey trigger key to the window that has the focus.

Syntax

<PassThrough>

Parameters

None.


Remarks

When you press a hotkey, HotkeyNet is normally the only program that sees the pressed key. If you want the keystroke to pass through to the window that has the focus, you have to say so like this:


<Hotkey A>
<PassThrough>
<SendPC 192.168.1.101>
<SendWin MyGame>
<Key A>

This hotkey allows "A" to pass through to whichever window has the focus on the local PC. Then the hotkey types "A" into a window called "MyGame" on a remote PC. The overall effect is that you press "A" once and it gets typed in two different windows.


It's rarely necessary to use PassThrough. You can usually achieve the same result by sending keystrokes explicitly. For example, the following hotkey does the same thing as the one just shown:


<Hotkey A>
<SendPC local>
<SendFocusWin>
<Key A>
<SendPC 192.168.1.101>
<SendWin MyGame>
<Key A>
