Hi,

i have an issue concerning the string-replacement.

whenever i want to replace a longer string (for example "weitergeleitet" (it's German))

after I press * to tell FastKeys to replace the string, a couple of letters remains, looking somewhat like

"weitSehr geehrte Damen und Herren...."

It seems to work a bit better, when i type the string slowly, but not always.
Short strings do not cause any problems at all.

Greetings,

Loxtus

In which application? In some slower applications, FastKeys key sending can be too fast. In such cases you need to introduce a short key delay - try setting a Key Delay in Preferences/Text Expander/Advanced to 10-50ms.

Hi Marko,

thank you for your fast reply.
That worked for me.

The application is a selfmade SAP module, which is kinda slow.

Greetings and thanks,
