Alt-tab bug

Postby randomname » Thu Dec 16, 2010 6:36 am

The game doesn't alt-tab in windows. When attempting to perform this, the task-bar appears, and so can task-manager if it's enabled to "always be on top", however the game doesn't minimise, and remains active.
Osmos 1.6.0 - build 1206
(on win XP SP3 - the FAQ seems to think alt-tab should work properly)

Hi randomname,

Osmos should play just fine with Alt+Tab. Any clues as to what's happening here? Maybe you've got some apps set to 'always on top' so they ninja fullscreen from Osmos?

Hi Dave,
Sorry, but that's not it. I run a very slim build, and even if I turn everything off, I get the same not-alt-tabbing bug. See screenshot. Includes task-manager to show I'm not running anything. Even with task-manager off, the alt-tab looks the same (as in, the windows task-bar shows and nothing more). The game is still active and running in the background.

Ok, so there's no attaching mechanism here. Ah well, you'll just have to take my word for it. :-) See here - Image
Sorry I can't give more information, I know how useless this is as a bug-report, but there's no more information to give.
