Hi All,
In my application I want to generate the SHIFT+CONTROL+1 event but unable to
do so. Currently I'm using following approach:


NSEvent *event=[NSEvent keyEventWithType:NSKeyDown
location:NSMakePoint(0,0), modifierFlags:NSShiftKeyMask| NSControlKeyMask
timestamp:0 windowNumber: [[sender window] windowNumber] context:nil
characters:@"1" charactersIgnoringModifiers:@"!" isARepeat:NO keyCode:18]


[NSApp postEvent:event atStart:YES];

I think your solution only work if the destination of your event is your application.
If you want to target another application, have a look at CGPostKeyboardEvent() :
