ControlFocus on Rainmeter InputText.dll Plugin

[icybricks]

I'm trying to give ControlFocus to a Rainmeter InputBox, which is based on RainMeter's InputText.dll plugin. My trouble is in identifying the InputBox.

Here's what Window Spy says:
Window Title, Class and Process
InputBox
ahk_class WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.3ce0bb8_r42_ad1
ahk_exe Rainmeter.exe

Control Under Mouse Position (the inputbox)
ClassNN: WindowsForms10.EDIT.app.0.3ce0bb8_r42_ad11

Here's some identification code I ran on the InputBox:

Code: Select all

WinGetActiveTitle, titleofinputbox
MsgBox %titleofinputbox% ;returns InputBox
WinGetClass, classofinputbox, %titleofinputbox%
MsgBox %classofinputbox% ;returns nothing (null)

Here's some code I tried:

Code: Select all

ControlFocus, WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.3ce0bb8_r42_ad1, InputBox
MsgBox %ErrorLevel% ;returns 1

ControlFocus, WindowsForms10.EDIT.app.0.3ce0bb8_r42_ad11, InputBox
MsgBox %ErrorLevel% ;returns 1

ControlFocus, 3ce0bb8_r42_ad1, InputBox
MsgBox %ErrorLevel% ;returns 1

ControlFocus,, InputBox
MsgBox %ErrorLevel% ;returns 1

ControlFocus, ahk_class WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.3ce0bb8_r42_ad1, InputBox
MsgBox %ErrorLevel% ;returns 1

ControlFocus, ahk_class 3ce0bb8_r42_ad1, InputBox
MsgBox %ErrorLevel% ;returns 1

ControlFocus, ahk_class WindowsForms10.EDIT.app.0.3ce0bb8_r42_ad1, InputBox
MsgBox %ErrorLevel% ;returns 1

;As a test, I preloaded the Rainmeter InputBox with the word foobar
ControlFocus, foobar, InputBox
MsgBox %ErrorLevel% ;returns 1

Please help guide me through this scripting. Thank you!

UPDATE: Still looking for a solution or for an explanation as to why what I've tried doesn't work.

Not sure if it will make a difference, but your second to last attempt has a typo - should be r42_ad11, and you have r42_ad1.

Thanks @MaxAstro. I corrected the typo but the ControlFocus statements I tried still fail, returning 1.
