How To Do Multiple Key Presses on Startup With Additional App?

[AlphaFeta]

Hello,

I have been trying to get a (non-emulated) game to both start up in Fullscreen (F11) and close the menu bar (F1) on startup automatically with an additional script - so far what I have been using is

#NoEnv

Sleep, 3000
SetKeyDelay, -1, 110
Send {F11}{F1}

Return

However this only ever seems to input F11 for fullscreen while leaving the menu bar up. Is there something I am missing in order to get both key presses to register?

Assuming they work when you do the manually, try separating out the Sends.

Sleep, 3000
SetKeyDelay, -1, 110
Send {F11}
Send {F1}

Return

It may be sending them consecutively too fast. Try adding a delay between the 2 key presses.

Sleep, 3000
SetKeyDelay, -1, 110
Send {F11}
Sleep, 1000
Send {F1}

Return

Is it (the script) at least "pressing" F11 to make it automatically switch to fullscreen?

Did you try increasing the delay between Send {F11} and Send {F1}?
