garbanzo Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 When the Edit Game window is open, I often want to ALT-TAB over to my browser, or to my file manager, so I can add details or drag in files for anything that isn't in the database. But when the Edit Game window is open, ALT-TAB tries to switch to my last open window, which is Launchbox. So I have to use ALT-TAB-TAB to get over to my browser. Can LaunchBox be made to tell Windows that the Edit Game window is part of the main application so that ALT-TAB just switches out of LaunchBox entirely?

Jason Carr Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 I believe this is a Windows issue, and it's how Microsoft intends this stuff to work. It's not a good idea for application developers to override basic functionality like this. Hitting an extra tab is not really an issue, which is probably why MS hasn't bothered to change that functionality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garbanzo Posted February 24, 2019 Author Share Posted February 24, 2019 OK, thanks for the feedback. I have software installed that works both ways - some sub-windows show up as additional taskbar entries, and some don't. So I assumed it was up to the developer to decide what works best for their users. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
