How to simulate "Paste" or "CTRL + V"

[zenfreak]

I have a form that will not display the post button until I populate a field by paste-ing my value either by using right-click and selecting "paste" or by using CTRL+V.

Take note the if I manually write the value into that field the submit button will NOT show! Weird, I know, but that's the way it is.

What would be a workaround this?

You try use keyboard emulation?
Some data fields use scripts who don't accept "SET" value, for these fields, use KEYBOARD emulation.
There is no one C# or Java code to do it implemented on Zenno.

....
easier way here

// performs the copy even
instance.ActiveTab.KeyEvent("C", "press", "ctrl");

// performs the paste event
instance.ActiveTab.KeyEvent("V", "press", "ctrl");

@SOS Cartões OFC I tried keyboard emulation first
@Lord_Alfred Your solution worked like a charm. Thank you! I forgive you for only speaking Russian
@PHaRTnONu Thank you for your solution but as Lord_Alfred stated, "don't forget about the buffer"!

What buffer? I don't see that comment?

If there are many threads and you are working with the clipboard by using

instance.ActiveTab.KeyEvent("V", "press", "ctrl");

they might overlap and you end up messing up each other's data. This is what I have understood by translating Lord_Alfred's post and even if I don't have too much coding experience it makes sense.

All right, but in fact it is better not to use change the buffer at all. It's unpredictable.

Oh yeah that make since cause it will use the computers paste bin not something tied to the instance alone...
