type() works with sikuliIDE scripts, but not with sikulixapi

Not sure how relevant following information will be:

Target app is java based.
Type command is used not to type into input box, but to trigger hot key shortcut.
Apart type() i've tested keyDown() keyUp() approach as well.

I do not have any experience with your scenario (hotkey against java app).

Is it really true, that this works from the SikuliX IDE?

Since you are working at the Java level anyways, you might try to use the AWT Robot class yourself (which internally is used with type/keyDown/keyUp). So you would have a better control over what is happening.

Thank you for replay.

That is the main thing what puzzles me, is that yes it does work at SikuliX IDE. In multiple different scripts. And does not work at all when implemented in pure java.

I will try AWT Robot directly.

It does work when AWT Robot is used directly.

Thanks for feedback.

Could you again try with the SikuliX type(), but do a

(org.sikuli.basics.) Settings.AutoDetectKeyboardLayout = false;

before doing the first type()

Would be helpful. Thanks.

That was a culprit. It works as intended when keyboard layout detection is turned off.
