hope to fixing it for Mojave 10.14.5

I’m also having this issue for Mac OS Catalina. Is there a work around for this? My current goal is to copy and paste info from a google sheets doc using xtype into a separate website one by one. Thank you!

I don’t use a mac, however, could you use this? (if I understand what you are wanting correctly):

{
  "Name": "Window",
  "CreationDate": "2019-12-5",
  "Commands": [
{
  "Command": "open",
  "Target": "https://forum.ui.vision/t/xtype-sendkeys-key-cmd-for-mac/1137/23",
  "Value": ""
},
{
  "Command": "selectWindow",
  "Target": "TAB=OPEN",
  "Value": "https://forum.ui.vision/t/issue-41-xclick-dual-monitor-support/1385"
},
{
  "Command": "echo",
  "Target": "Copy from Google Sheets",
  "Value": ""
},
{
  "Command": "selectWindow",
  "Target": "tab=0",
  "Value": ""
},
{
  "Command": "echo",
  "Target": "Paste Into website",
  "Value": ""
},
{
  "Command": "selectWindow",
  "Target": "tab=1",
  "Value": ""
},
{
  "Command": "echo",
  "Target": "Return to Google Sheets",
  "Value": ""
}
  ]
}

This sounds like what I’m doing. I’m also having this issue.

Current workaround I am using is Xclick to the edit menu in sheets using coordinates and Xtype KEY_C to copy, go to the other web page and select the element, then Xclick to the Mac edit menu and Xtype KEY_P and KEY_ENTER to paste.

Hope this is fixed soon!

I will lock this post so we have only one to discuss this issue.

Finally the new XModule V2021-1 solves this issue. And it adds support for multiple modifier keys.
