FSCommander taking over active window on client.

[Wise87 1,281]

I know this is the P3D forum but I figure there are more users running FSCommander on a client system. I know Rob A does and I hope he test this out. Has anyone noticed with Rev 7 on up that FSC takes over the active window. I normal have FSC, SmartCARS, VPilot and VatSpy and Teamspeak running on my client. FSC is dedicated to its own monitor. What I have noticed is FSC takes over as the active Window when GPS is enabled. I could be typing in VPilot or any other program, or simply watch a twitch stream and FSC takes over as the active window. If I disable GPS "Connect to FlightSim" it no longer takes over as the active window and what ever I have selected remains active. Just wondering if anyone else is seeing this. I wish I kept Rev 6. :(

I see this too. If I minimize fscommander and choose 'yes' it doesn't try and 'grab' attention.

Does it stop it when you bring it back up?

[RichUK 474]

For me, no. It just carries on again.

Ok thanks for the feedback. I posted in the FSCommander forum but it will probably not be addressed. I discover later that others reported the problem but nothing will be done about it. What gets me is it didn't do this with Rev 6 and below.

Yep. Totally understand.

Well I'm not getting anywhere with the developer. He says it's not causing him problems but I know of 4 reported cases since v7 and up was released. Time to find an alternative seeing he's no help.
