how to alt + tab multiple times

Hi,

I'm an Opera Browser user, and have configure the 'mouse right-button-down + scroll down 'to be the previous task I was doing and the ' mouse right-button-down + scroll up' to be the next task for windows applications. However, i can't seem to be able to program strokeIt to hold down the alt key while each scroll up/down represents one tab function. I know this sounds confusing, but opera users will get what I mean.

Also, how can I configure stroke it to work with opera? Once i'm surfing with opera, i can't seem to use any of the strokeit keys anymore because all the mouse actions are overtaken by opera. however, is it possible to still retain all the mouse actions in opera and add additional ones using stroke it?

Thank you!!

The preconfigured Next Task [Up-Right] and Previous Task [Up-Left] work for moving through tasks for me on Windows 2000 but on XP they don't do anything...is there a way to get these actions to work on XP?

I just noticed on WindowsXP that the command for Next Window and Previous Window have a red question mark beside them instead of the black arrow symbol that should be there..."Windows - Next Window" and "Windows - Previous Windows" are not listed in the command drop down list...see attached...is there a way to get this working on XP?

I think that the red mark means that there is no preconfigured command for the task. This is to say that you have a gesture for the task, but the program doesn't know how to execute it. You'll just have to click on the "task next" and then click on next window under task next.

choose "keys - send keystrokes" from the drop down menu. and then type:

[ALT_DOWN][SHIFT][TAB][ALT_UP]

it's the same for previous task but you'll just have to enter:

[ALT_DOWN][TAB][ALT_UP]

and that's done.

However, I still don't know how i can program it to alt+tab multiple times to bring me to the previous' previous task.

[SHIFT][ALT][TAB]

try this:

[SHIFT_DOWN][ALT_DOWN][TAB][ALT_UP][SHIFT_UP]

works at my xp

[ALT_DOWN][TAB][ALT_UP]

is right

I think the only real solution is creating multiple gestures

one for [ALT_DOWN]
an another for [TAB_DOWN][TAB_UP]
and a third for [ALT_UP]

I mean...

1. [ALT_DOWN][TAB_DOWN][TAB_UP]
2. [ALT_UP]

Copy this to Notepad, save as *.sxp and import to StrokeIt
You can toggle between programs with the wheel and finish it with a left gesture.
(works only if 'Left', 'WHEEL_UP' and 'WHEEL_DOWN' gestures aren't occupied; 'Left' is free by default, but the other two you have to delete from 'Task Next' and 'Tasp Prev' actions):

<VERSION>StrokeIt .9.4</VERSION>

<APP name="Default">
ALT_UP {
gesture = Left
command = keys, keys [ALT_UP]
}
ALT+TAB {
gesture = WHEEL_UP
command = keys, keys [ALT_DOWN][TAB_DOWN][TAB_UP]
}
SHIFT+ALT+TAB {
gesture = WHEEL_DOWN
command = keys, keys [ALT_DOWN][SHIFT_DOWN][TAB_DOWN][TAB_UP][SHIFT_UP]
}
</APP>

if i remember correctly older versions of Opera's builtin mouse gesturing was turned on by default and would conflict with strokeit... so to get strokeit to work you'd had to turn off operas mg
