I would like to "control v" the contents of %GlobalVariable% into a text file. Up until now I have been using the "Send Keys" action; however, since there is a lot of text it is too slow.
What action can be used to paste the content of my %GlobalVariable% saved in the clipboard?
Thanks,
Emerson
Thanks for you answer; however, I need a different solution as it seems I cannot copy the text that parse using the following parse action to clip board.
Text To Parse: %GlobalVariablesRawText%
Text To Find: (?<=\$%GlobalVariableName%\r\n-\r\n)(.|\r\n)*?(?=\r\n--)
Store Match(es): %GlobalVariable%
As you see it almost works like a get clipboard action; but, I need it to save to globalvariable for my needs; I wish it could store match(es) in globalvariable and clipboard at the same time; that would be good.
Hopefully, Codex and answer this one.
After further investigation; I realized I made a mistake. You can paste the contents of the globalvariable. My mistake was I forgot to add the action "Set Clipboard Text" to the global variable before I tried to "Get" it. Doh :)
Thanks, Jag
Hi Emerson,
I know what you mean. Using the send keys to auto type text can be very slow if the amount of text is large.
Try this:
1. Store the text variables into a clipboard using the "Set Clipboard Text" action.
2. Use "Get Clipboard Text" to copy the text
3. Paste the text to where you want it to be using "Send Keys" - {Control}({V})
Hope this helps!
