Re: [Question #101902]: Cannot type slash character. This slash: "/" --- workaround: alt + numpad

 

Question #101902 on Sikuli changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/101902

Summary changed to:
Cannot type slash character. This slash: "/" --- workaround: alt + numpad

Description changed to:
************** workaround
Found the best solution. Universal on all Windows systems is alt + numpad (from comment #7)

# So for Slash
def typeSlash():
    keyDown(Key.ALT)
    type(Key.NUM4+Key.NUM7)
    keyUp()

---------------------------------------------
When I issue the command on the line 3 of my script:
    type("/")
The Sikuli IDE does not send the slash character ("/") and throw the following error:
