For some reason, I cannot input anything in the terminal. I’ve clicked on it before that to make sure its window Is not in the background.

{
  "Name": "Installer",
  "CreationDate": "2022-6-8",
  "Commands": [
    {
      "Command": "XRun",
      "Target": "/usr/bin/gnome-terminal",
      "Value": "",
      "Description": ""
    },
    {
      "Command": "XClickRelative",
      "Target": "Terminal_dpi_96.png",
      "Value": "",
      "Description": ""
    },
    {
      "Command": "XType",
      "Target": "xdg-open",
      "Value": "",
      "Description": ""
    }
  ]
}

Typing in the Linux terminal works fine in my test (Ubuntu 20.04), see below. Can you maybe share a video of your test?

Thank you for the quick reply. This is the flow for me and my colleagues. Is your Ubunutu native or VM? This may be the issue.

I’ve tried on Ubuntu from VirtualBox 21.04 and Ubuntu from ubuntu.org 22.04 and still can figure it out :frowning:

Copy/Paste is not helping as well.

This for example works great

{
“Name”: “Typing”,
“CreationDate”: “2022-6-9”,
“Commands”: [
{
“Command”: “XRun”,
“Target”: “/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice”,
“Value”: “”,
“Description”: “”
},
{
“Command”: “XClick”,
“Target”: “lawcar_dpi_96.png”,
“Value”: “”,
“Description”: “”
},
{
“Command”: “XType”,
“Target”: “hi”,
“Value”: “”,
“Description”: “”
}
]
}

If you run a VM could you provide us an example of the Graphics settings?

Hi, we often use these VBox images for testing:

Can you test on these?

OR: Can you send us a download link to one of your Linux machines? Virtual Box or VM images would be ok.

Hi Admin, Thank you for your response. Please try to use the same script with Ubuntu 21.10, You can download it from the same website that you shared before for Ubuntu 20.04.

I think it might relate to a different graphical interface in the Ubuntu OS.
