Hallo,
I don't know why not, but that's how it seems to work:

Code: Select all

gui, add, edit, w300 h200, Test `r`nkeep the msgbox open, and press "ctrl+a" in the gui edit control to select all text
gui, show
msgbox, Wait
return
guiclose:	;__________ gui close ________
exitapp
#IfWinActive, ahk_class AutoHotkeyGUI
^a::ControlSend,, ^a

Thanks for the work around!

That is really strange, maybe it is a bug!
