C# Wait for SendKeys to finish sending before executing next line of code?

Question

I think the title explains what I am asking.

I need the SendKeys to finish sending the keys before the DoMouseClick method or my entire program is useless.

// Simulate the keyboard typing the value of 'i'
SendKeys.SendWait(i.ToString());

// Simulate mouse click so the Accept button in-game is clicked
DoMouseClick();

I tried using Thread.Sleep but I was hoping you guys had some better suggestions on how to fix my problem.

Use Input Simulator. It's much better than SendKeys, and handles the edge cases internally.

Install-Package InputSimulator

var simulator = new InputSimulator();

//simulate what you need
simulator.Keyboard.KeyPress(VirtualKeyCode.VK_I);
simulator.Keyboard.TextEntry(i.ToString());

simulator.Mouse.LeftButtonDoubleClick();
