[Bug 1696381] Re: type("i", KeyModifier.CTRL + KeyModifier.SHIFT) does not work on Mac
Hi RaiMan,
Thank you very much for the quick reply!
I love your SikuliX tool :)
Coming to the problem, I tested the same on Safari too. Yes, on Safari
it works.
But for that particular application it does not work.
The application responds when I press i + Ctrl + Shift manually.
Actually, now it looks something related to keyboard focus on Mac.
When I use switchApp() to switch focus to that app, the function fails with -1 error.
I observed that SikuliX IDE also does not take keys (I cannot type) after it comes in front again after executing a script.
To start typing again in the IDE, I need to switch to some other app and then come back to the IDE.

Title:
type("i", KeyModifier.CTRL + KeyModifier.SHIFT) does not work on Mac
Status in Sikuli:
Opinion
Bug description:
I have an application which handles "Control + Shift + i" keys combination.
The application is NodeJS based and it is supported on Ubuntu, Windows and Mac.
When I execute type("i", KeyModifier.SHIFT + KeyModifier.CTRL) on
windows, it works well. But on Mac, it does not work.
Before executing this line, I activate the window of my app by clicking it.
Also, I am able to use the keys manually in the aplication but not through sikulix script.
My guess is that the issue is related to "Control" key handling on Mac.
I verified that the type() function works with the SHIFT and Command key modifiers on Mac.
SikuliX version: 1.1.1
MacOS: OS X EI Caption 10.11.6 (MacBook Pro)
