[1.6.1] cycling screens problem
hello
With Windows XP SP2 and WinUAE 1.6.1, one time on two when I cycle Windows and WinUAE screens with AltTab or via Taskbar, Windows pointer is still displayed, I have to re-cycle screens and I get Amiga pointer back as well. thanks |

ALT-TAB was never meant to re-capture the mouse, it is only meant to uncapture mouse.

I think one important part is missing: do you mean fullscreen modes?

This only happening in 1.6.1 or does it also happen in 1.6.0 and 1.5?

ok, after one day of tests with 1.6.0 version, it seems that's Windows who is responsable of this trouble but I've not found yet the cause.
if someone has an idea, I'll test what you want, it's really boring to have cycle screen two times to work.. thanks |

works fine here with: native - fullscreen + vsync
I am able to change with Alt+Tab as often as I want to, mouse gets captured everytime I go back to WinUAE Last edited by crusader86x; 04 July 2009 at 15:15. |

Do you mean click/doublick does not capture the mouse? Entering and exiting the GUI?
(It still should be "fixed" even if it is Windows/display driver/whatever weirdness) |

I think he means when you press Alt-Tab, sure enough, you switch to the next program, but pressing Alt-Tab again doesn't switch back to WinUAE. All other programs work that way; you work in a certain program, alt-tab to switch to the other program to check something, and alt-tab and you're back in the original program.
Been that way in a few versions of WinUAE. I don't remember if it worked in Vista, but it doesn't work that way in XP 64-bit and normal XP. |

I think you are confused by Windows feature. Fullscreen ALT-TAB won't "work" if there is only one program running.
(ALWAYS test older versions that was "guaranteed" to work to confirm it is NOT winuae specific problem) |

Press F12 and then ESC or doubleclick left mouse button Your system configuration may not be the only one doing that so some kind of workaround may need to be implemented.. |
