I'm trying to use applescript to send keystrokes to a windows app within parallels 5. It works except for when I want a SHIFT modifier. e.g. activate application "Parallels Desktop" tell application "System Events" keystroke "4" end tell and activate application "Parallels Desktop" tell application "System Events" keystroke "g" using {control down} keystroke return end tell both work as expected but activate application "Parallels Desktop" tell application "System Events" keystroke "4" using shift end tell fails - it outputs "4" instead of "$". The same script works as expected into other OSX applications. Any idea on how I can make this work ??? (The scripts are being linked to Dragon Dictate and are needed to drive a windows only software development environment - btw: Dragon has a way of getting these characters output, but it's very long winded, so I know it must be possible somehow ! - I've also tried the direct key mapping in Dragon, with the same results)
