In my Nintex RPA embedded wizards, I’m programmatically opening and closing a couple of apps (MS Edge, and Outlook).

I want to use an Advanced Command to open the URL (Edge) or run the app (Outlook).

I also want to be able to add a keyboard shortcut to maximize the window (Alt-Shift, x)

For example:

 

PROBLEM: 
I can’t figure out how to do the “open” (Advanced Command) in the same step as the “Alt-Spacebar, x” (a core action).


My workaround is to:
  1) run the advanced command, then
  2) record the new window, and finally
  3) add my keyboard shortcut to the newly recorded Step 2.


Q: Is there any “better” way to accomplish this?

PS: I also tried “Control Window”, with “Maximize”.  That didn’t seem to work...
