Set KBD layout to AHK window. bug?

[robodesign]

Hello!

I've been trying for the past few days to find a way to set the keyboard layout to my own AHK window, but without luck. I've even compiled a small script that does simply [on e.g. F1]:

PostMessage, 0x50, 0, 0x40A0409,, A

It works with all the apps I tested but not with AHK windows, any... whatsoever. Is this a bug? Or... am I missing something?

Thank you. I will soon test the new AHK versions with fixes regarding dead keys.

Best regards, Marius.

So you can't get one script to set the keyboard layout for another script, by sending a message to the AutoHotkey main window (or one of its controls)?

Yes, that is correct. Is it just me or... what? I am on Win10, but tested this on Win 7 as well, in virtual box.
