ACCENTS: How to Exclude Application
« on: June 09, 2007, 07:52 PM »
I have application specific hotkeys defined when I run SlingBox ("a" and "c" using PowerPro).  Depending on the relative order that PowerPro and Accents are loaded, my A and C Accents can prevent my A and C SlingBox hotkeys from functioning.  How can I exclude SlingBox from Accents?

Thanks -- Vincent

Accents, like any hotkey processor which might send the very key which triggered it, must send that key in such a way as to bypass hotkey processors (or you get an infinite loop).  I'm not quite sure how Accents does this, but I assume it must.

Such hotkey processors should be placed at the end of the chain of hotkey processors to minimize the chance of hotkey conflict.  Does AutoHotkey or Windows have such a feature to control the order of hotkey processors?

Thanks - Vincent

Have you had a chance to look at it?
