Description: Cannot remotely change the slide number on a random access basis by sending the slide no and and enter key from a Python script. Tested on Win10x64, targetting Rpi4 when working. Steps to Reproduce: Try this Python snippet: import keyboard page = 30 keyboard.write( str(page), 0.1, True, None) time.sleep(0.1) keyboard.send('enter') Save this file, and debug/run it. Actual Results: Slide increments by one. Presumably the Enter key is processed? Expected Results: If you hand type '30<enter>' then Impress jumps to show slide 30. Therefore, if you mimic the keyboard using this script to automate typing for you, when Impress is in focus, I expected the slide to jump to 30. The script works on Win10x64 when pointed at Notepad, so it's something in the receiving app. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: It should have jumped to 30. Perhaps it's a misunderstanding my side on how this is supposed to be controlled? (Opening a network listener with a simple API in Impress would be a better solution. Perhaps that's in the pipeline?)
