Send keyboard commands to photoshop, through labview

Solved!
Go to solution

I am trying to send keyboard commands to photoshop, but I can't get photoshop to come to front, because, from what I understand, the command needs a window name, and I am using the name that appears on the task manager, because photoshop doesn't create a new file after it gets opened.

Can anyone please tell me how I can bring photoshop to front, or some way I can get the correct name I need to send the bring to front command, so that it can get photoshop on the front view?

Thanks in advance.

I fixed the problem I was having.

It seems that you can't minimize the application, before bringing it to front, because if you do so, the application will never be set to foreground. I just stopped minimizing the application and it worked.

The other thing is that for this to work with Adobe Photoshop, a new project must be create, before running the application, in order to call the window to foreground, so the application must be opened, and a new project must be created, before running the labview code.

Thanks in advance.
