If anyone can give me some code snippets that show how to do the task switch thing I'll be happy to implement them.

Task switch on the os tab in Girder works in win2k. ( It pops up the list of running apps )

Numbuilder executes the OnPress when enough buttons where pressed. So works also.

I've just checked something sending ALT+TAB via girder keyboard action actually switch between the two active tasks (I thought I would need to find the right target window, but for some reason it works without setting a target at all), now the only problem is that it switches only between 2 programs because for the ALT-TAB are sent togheter, so I guess doing a smarter switcher (that can press alt, hold it and press tab more then once...) is not realy a problem.

Just for thought...

Hi,

I'm creating controls for some software, so I use numbuilder for this. But I find out, that if I set number to count to 3 & format %03d the 4th press resets number & start from the beginning. My suggestion would be, that before resetting number after count limit, OnEnter event would be issued (or maybe there would be choise-checkbox for this action).
Another feature, that would make life easier - task switch, which could cycle through software in traybar also. Now taskswitch option is equal to alt+tab, so programs in tray are left.
Maybe concern can be made for optimizations - I'm using WinLirc + WinLirc plugin + Girder, so PIII 500 MHz seems almost on the edge - more load produces lag (for example several times fast-forward with 5s in winamp. Girder send fast-forward messages to winamp for several seconds more than remote button was used).
But total impressions on girder are very good - great work.
And at the end - forum link from menu isn't working after several reloads (TCP_IP problem is displayed), only alternative link helps.

Ron, so what do you think about numbuilder action: issue OnEnter event before resetting number ?
