Text

Sends simulated keystrokes to a window. It may be used to send raw text or commands. This field accepts Variables & Expressions.

Text (F3)

Plain Text (Raw): Uses SendRaw. The SendRaw command interprets all characters literally rather than translating {Enter} to an ENTER keystroke, ^c to Control-C, etc.
Text with commands: Uses SendInput. When not in raw mode, the following characters are treated as modifiers (these modifiers affect only the very next key): !, +, ^, #.
Set key delay: Uses SendEvent. The rate at which keystrokes are sent is determined by Key Delay.
Paste from Clipboard: Temporarily uses Clipboard to send the text. When the operation is completed, the script restores the original clipboard contents.
Paste on Control: Uses Control, EditPaste. Pastes String at the caret/insert position in an Edit control (this does not affect the contents of the clipboard).
SetText: Uses ControlSetText. Changes the text of a control.
Key delay: Sets the delay that will occur after each keystroke sent in Text with commands mode.
Insert KeyStroke: Opens the Insert Keystroke window where you can choose a keyboard key from a list. Double-click or click Insert to insert the key in the current cursor postion. The key will be inserted in AutoHotkey Send format, only valid for Text with commands option.
