Send Keystroke to Browser Source

@Exeldro and others - I have a new install of OBS 31.0.1 with the Move 3.1.1 installed on a windows 10 pc. I have a slideshow, using reveal.js, that runs in a browser. It requires that I use the keyboard to cycle through slides and perform other actions. Is there an easy way to send keystrokes to the browser source from within obs? Possibly using Move Action?

Thanks in advance for your help!

If you're talking about a specific plugin, it's usually better to use the plugin-specific Discussion thread, that you can get to from the same page on this site where you got the plugin in the first place.

But this functionality seems to me like it might be better done with the Advanced Scene Switcher plugin. I know it can generate keystrokes; the question is whether those keystrokes can get to the browser.
Again, questions about any specific plugin would be better on the plugin's own discussion thread.

So @AaronD & @koala - Yes I was looking at staying within the OBS software and having it interact automatically. The log file is:

@AaronD - I intentionally chose not to put it in a specific plugin forum because I am open to other options. I know of options that include writing autohotkey scripts that can accomplish the task - but if there was a way to stay within OBS that would be better for my students. I knew that @Exeldro had included the Move Action in his plugin and I wasn't sure exactly how that worked so I tagged him in the post for that reason.

As for the Interact option - that requires that the interact window be active instead of OBS which if I have to keep switching back and forth then I will just write the autohotkey script. A thought I just had is maybe I could put the interact window into an OBS dock? That might work for what I am doing. But any other suggestions are greatly appreciated.
